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
10 people who build at the same rate can frame a house in 6 days. That means it will take one person days to finish the house.
Which means that it will take 4 people days to finish the house.
So, the fractional part of the house 4 people can frame in 3 days will be
Thus, Option D is the correct answer.
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
x² + 12² = 13², so
x² + 144 = 169 ( subtract 144 from both sides )
x² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = = 5
