Check the picture below.

the idea being, that if we run an altitude segment from a right-angle in a triangle, and parallel to the opposite side, like in thise case, we end up with 3 similar triangles, a Large one, containing the other smaller ones, a Medium and a Small.

now, let's simply use proportions for those similar triangles.

\bf \stackrel{Large}{\cfrac{12}{4+x}}=\stackrel{Small}{\cfrac{4}{12}}\implies \cfrac{12}{4+x}=\cfrac{1}{3}\implies 36=4+x\implies \boxed{32=x} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{Small}{\cfrac{4}{y}}=\stackrel{Medium}{\cfrac{y}{x}}\implies 4x=y^2\implies 4(32)=y^2\implies 128=y^2\implies \sqrt{128}=y \\\\\\ \sqrt{64\cdot 2}=y\implies \sqrt{8^2\cdot 2}=y\implies \boxed{8\sqrt{2}=y} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf \stackrel{Large}{\cfrac{z}{4+x}}=\stackrel{Medium}{\cfrac{x}{z}}\implies z^2=(4+x)x\implies z^2=4x+x^2\implies z = \sqrt{4x+x^2} \\\\\\ z = \sqrt{4(32)+32^2}\implies z = \sqrt{128+1024}\implies z = \sqrt{1152} \\\\\\ z = \sqrt{576\cdot 2}\implies z = \sqrt{24^2\cdot 2}\implies \boxed{z = 24\sqrt{2}}

Two cars, A and B, are travelling along a straight road and in the same direction. Car B is 20 km
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

2 o'clock

Step-by-step explanation:

Their 'closing speed' is 60 - 50 = 10 km/hr

they have 20 km between them

 at closing speed this will take   20 km / 10 km/hr = 2 hours for the cars to meet....this would be at 14:00    or  2 oclock

Which values are solutions to the inequality –3x – 4 < 2? Check all of the boxes that apply.
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

x>-2

Step-by-step explanation:

We will need to solve the inequality:

–3x – 4 < 2

Before starting we need to understand 1 rule of inequalities. That is:

We change the inequality sign whenever we multiply or divide by a negative number. That means

< changes to >

and

≥  change  to ≤

and vice versa...

Now, let's go ahead and solve the inequality:

-3x-4

"x" is the set of all values that is greater than "-2". So that's the answer.

x > -2

Which of the following represents the general term for the sequence 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, . . .? n
zalisa [80]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given sequence, the terms are increasing in arithmetic progression. The common difference, d between successive terms is 2

The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

d represents the common difference.

n represents the number of terms in the sequence.

From the information given,

a = 1

d = 2

Therefore, the expression for the general term for the sequence is

Tn = 1 + 2(n - 1)

Write the slope-interceptiin form of the equation 17=y+4x
erastova [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope intercept form is y = mx + b

17 = y + 4x....we have to get y on one side and everything else on the other side.....so the easiest way would be to subtract 4x from both sides

17 - 4x = y + 4x - 4x....combine like terms

17 - 4x = y...rearrange

y = -4x + 17 <===== slope intercept form
