Hey there! :D
The biggest thing to remember here is the similar triangles and their side lengths.
Okay, so we can separate these triangles into 3 similar triangles. Which, we only need to do that to two for a proportion, but if you were to have more variables, you could separate the triangles even more if you needed to.
We want to find two triangles that have "x" has a value of their side, so we can solve a proportion.
The bigger triangle, (the whole two triangles combine) and the smaller triangle on the left can be used to make a proportion.
On the smaller triangle:
We have 9 cm on the shorter side and x as the hypotenuse.
On the larger triangle:
We have x as the shorter side, and then 25 as the hypotenuse. (9+16)
Note: You have to flip the larger triangle upside down to make it a similar structure to the other two triangles. It is similar, you just have to flip it.
So, now we can make a proportion.

Now, cross multiply.
9*25= 225
x*x=

So, find the square root.
√225= 15
x= 15. I hope this helps!

Experimental Probability = 2/3
To find the experimental probability that the tack lands point-up for student 4, we can use the following equation

If this helped you a Brainliest would be appreciated!
Here, we are missing the slope and the y intercept.
Lets look for the y intercept first.
Where does it cross the y axis? At 3!!
3 is the y intercept.
Now, find the slope by using the slope formula.

(0,3) and (2,1)
m = 1-3/2-0 = -2/2 = -2/2 = -1
m = -1
Okay, so we found our slope, now just write the equation.
Answer: y = -1x + 3
Slope of the line is -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given points are (1, -2) and (3, -5)
- Step 2: Equation for slope, m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
⇒ m = (-5 - -2)/(3 - 1) = -3/2
Answer:
2713
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cylinder is base * height. That means the whole cylinder's volume is 8^2 * 18 * pi = 1152 pi
The volume of a sphere is (4/3)(pi)(r^3) = (4/3)(pi)(6^3) = 288 pi
Cylinder - Sphere = Shaded Volume
1152pi - 288pi = 864pi
Substitute 3.14 for pi, and you get
864(3.14) = 2712.96, which rounds to 2713
