Answer:
x = 3, y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure attached,
If ΔADE and ΔABC are similar triangles, their corresponding sides will be in the same ratio.
By this property,
3x = 2x + 3
3x - 2x = 3
x = 3
Similarly, 
y = 
y = 6
Answer:
7 1/2 hours I believe is the correct answer. Hope it works!
11 liters of 25% orange juice, 4 liters of 10% orange juice:
1' let x to be 25% orange juice and y be 10% orange juice
2' .25x+.10y=(15).21
3' x+y=15
4' 2.5x+y=31.5 divide all sides by 10
5' -x-y=-15 multiply all sides by -1
6' 1.5x=16.5
7' x=11
8' y=15-11=4
so 11 and 4 are the answers.
Well for the first one you have to subtract 3 on both sides so that would make the equation x > -8 (because a negative subtracting a positive is basically a negative plus negative) and so your equations done. For the second one you divide both ides by -4 so your equation would be x < 4 (the sign would be less then or qual to because you divided by a negative)
