Answer 1

The required measure of Street K between Street C and D is 337.5 ft.

Explanation:

Given that,

In a certain city, E Street, W Street, C Street, and D Street are parallel streets that intersect K Street and M Street. How long is K Street between C Street and D Street is to be determined.

here,

Let the distance of street K between C and D be x,

Now,

Taking the equality of the proportionality expression of triangles,

600 / 400 = 600 + x / 400 + 250

6 / 4 = 600 + x / 625

3750/4 = 600 + x

937.5 = 600 + x

x = 337.5
