Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider similar triangles BMC and KMN.
In these triangles,
where O is the point of intersection of BC and MP.
Note that segment OP has the length the same as the side of the square ABCD. Hence,
Answer:
x = 1
y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use either substitution or elimination for this problem. I will use substitution.
Step 1: Replace x in the 1st equation
-10(y-4) + 3y = 5
-10y + 40 + 3y = 5
-7y = -35
y = 5
Step 2: Plug <em>y </em>into an original equation to find <em>x</em>
x = 5 - 4
x = 1
And you have your final answers!
The ratio is 4/3 because you add AC which is 12 and then divided 9 (BC) by 12
