Solution
Solve the system of equations by following steps:
- step0: Solve using the substitution method:
\(\left\{ \begin{array}{l}\frac{5}{x}=\frac{10}{13}\\\frac{x}{10}=\frac{y}{12}\end{array}\right.\)
- step1: Solve the equation:
\(\left\{ \begin{array}{l}x=\frac{13}{2}\\\frac{x}{10}=\frac{y}{12}\end{array}\right.\)
- step2: Substitute the value of \(x:\)
\(\frac{\frac{13}{2}}{10}=\frac{y}{12}\)
- step3: Simplify:
\(\frac{13}{20}=\frac{y}{12}\)
- step4: Swap the sides:
\(\frac{y}{12}=\frac{13}{20}\)
- step5: Multiply both sides of the equation by \(12:\)
\(\frac{y}{12}\times 12=\frac{13}{20}\times 12\)
- step6: Multiply the terms:
\(y=\frac{13\times 12}{20}\)
- step7: Evaluate:
\(y=\frac{39}{5}\)
- step8: Calculate:
\(\left\{ \begin{array}{l}x=\frac{13}{2}\\y=\frac{39}{5}\end{array}\right.\)
- step9: Check the solution:
\(\left\{ \begin{array}{l}x=\frac{13}{2}\\y=\frac{39}{5}\end{array}\right.\)
- step10: Rewrite:
\(\left(x,y\right) = \left(\frac{13}{2},\frac{39}{5}\right)\)
Solve the system of equations \( 7/15=x/3; 9/x=36/52; 5/x=2.5/8; x/1.2=35/4/2 \).
Solve the system of equations by following steps:
- step0: Solution:
\(\left\{ \begin{array}{l}\frac{7}{15}=\frac{x}{3}\\\frac{9}{x}=\frac{36}{52}\\\frac{5}{x}=\frac{2.5}{8}\\\frac{x}{1.2}=\frac{\frac{35}{4}}{2}\end{array}\right.\)
- step1: Calculate:
\(\left\{ \begin{array}{l}x=\frac{7}{5}\\x=13\\x=16\\x=\frac{21}{4}\end{array}\right.\)
- step2: Find the intersection:
\(x \in \varnothing \)
Let's solve the problems step by step.
### Problem 9: Find the unknown member of the proportion.
a) \( \frac{7}{15}=\frac{x}{3} \)
To find \( x \), we can cross-multiply:
\[
7 \cdot 3 = 15 \cdot x \implies 21 = 15x \implies x = \frac{21}{15} = \frac{7}{5}
\]
b) \( 9: x=36: 52 \)
This can be written as:
\[
\frac{9}{x} = \frac{36}{52}
\]
Cross-multiplying gives:
\[
9 \cdot 52 = 36 \cdot x \implies 468 = 36x \implies x = \frac{468}{36} = 13
\]
c) \( 5: x=2.5: 8 \)
This can be written as:
\[
\frac{5}{x} = \frac{2.5}{8}
\]
Cross-multiplying gives:
\[
5 \cdot 8 = 2.5 \cdot x \implies 40 = 2.5x \implies x = \frac{40}{2.5} = 16
\]
d) \( x: 1.2=\frac{35}{4}: 2 \)
This can be written as:
\[
\frac{x}{1.2} = \frac{35/4}{2}
\]
Cross-multiplying gives:
\[
x \cdot 2 = 1.2 \cdot \frac{35}{4} \implies 2x = \frac{42}{4} \implies x = \frac{21}{4} = 5.25
\]
### Summary of Results for Problem 9:
- a) \( x = \frac{7}{5} \)
- b) \( x = 13 \)
- c) \( x = 16 \)
- d) \( x = 5.25 \)

### Problem 10: If \( \frac{5}{x}=\frac{10}{13} \) and \( \frac{x}{10}=\frac{y}{12} \), find \( x+y \).
From the first equation:
\[
\frac{5}{x} = \frac{10}{13} \implies 5 \cdot 13 = 10 \cdot x \implies 65 = 10x \implies x = \frac{65}{10} = 6.5
\]
Now substituting \( x \) into the second equation:
\[
\frac{6.5}{10} = \frac{y}{12} \implies 6.5 \cdot 12 = 10y \implies 78 = 10y \implies y = \frac{78}{10} = 7.8
\]
Now, we find \( x + y \):
\[
x + y = 6.5 + 7.8 = 14.3
\]
### Summary of Result for Problem 10:
- \( x + y = 14.3 \)

### Problem 11: Drawing the plan of the building's base.
The building has a rectangular base with dimensions:
- Length = 50 m
- Width = 20 m
Using a scale of \( 1:50 \):
- Length in the drawing = \( \frac{50}{50} = 1 \) m
- Width in the drawing = \( \frac{20}{50} = 0.4 \) m
You can draw a rectangle with dimensions 1 m by 0.4 m on your paper to represent the base of the building.
### Summary of Result for Problem 11:
- Draw a rectangle with dimensions 1 m (length) and 0.4 m (width) using a scale of \( 1:50 \).
