Answer:

[tex]q=8.5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the side lengths (AB) and (BC) is given. One is also given an expression for the side lengths of each of these sides. Set up a proportion to describe this scenario, then solve using cross products;

[tex]\frac{AB}{BC}=\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]\frac{60}{10q+15}=\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Cross products,

[tex]\frac{60}{10q+15}=\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

[tex](60)(4)=(10q+15)(3)\\\\240=30q+45[/tex]

Inverse operations,

[tex]240=30q+45\\\\195=30q\\\\8.5=q[/tex]
