Answer:
1. 3.125
2. 4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Since the figures are similar, the number you divide from one triangle to the other is the same, no matter the side length. 5(x) = 8 so 5/x = y. If x = 1.6, then y equals 3.125.
2. The same thing here. 4/x = 3 and 6/x = m. In the first equation x would be 1 1 1/3. 6/ 1 1/3 is the same as 6 x 3/4 which is 18/4 or 4.5.
