The relationship between Traingle XYZ and ACB is that they are similar triangles. tanX = tanA = 5 over 2 and 5 tenths, where

  • AC = 2 x  XY
  • CB = 2 x  YZ

<h3>What is the dilation about?</h3>

Triangle XYZ was dilated by a scale factor of 2 to create triangle ACB, hence XYZ and ACB are similar triangles.

Angles Y and C are said to measure 90 degrees, and angles A and X are known to be congruent. Thus:

tanX = tanA = 5 over 2 and 5 tenths

AC = 2 x  XY

CB = 2 x  YZ

Another way to solve for it is by:

Note that Dilation of the triangle ΔXYZ was by a factor of "2".

Since m∠Y = m∠C = 90º   - given

ΔXYZ and ΔACB are said to be right triangles.

Since ∠X ≅ ∠A   - given

Then ∠X and ∠Z are  said to becomplementary angles

Since m∠Z = 90° - m∠X   -- given

Then ∠A and ∠B are said to be complementary angles

Since m∠B = 90° - m∠A  --- given

Then, ∠Z ≅ ∠B

Therefore ΔXYZ ∼ ΔACB are  similar triangles because it has its corresponding sides to be proportional and its corresponding angles to be congruent.

Note:

sin ∠X = 5/5.59

sin ∠X = YZ/XY

YZ = 5  seen in ΔXYZ

XZ = 5.59 seen in hypotenuse of ΔXYZ

Then one need to Calculate the length of one aspect of XY:

XY = √((5.59)2 - 52)

= 2.4996

Note CB/YZ = 2

CD = 2*YZ = 2 x 5

= 10

AC/XY = 2

AC = 2* XY

= 2 x 2.4996

= 4.999

24=6(-x-3) <br> in class need help
kherson [118]

Answer:

- 7

Step-by-step explanation:

6(- x - 3) = 24

-6x - 18 = 24

-6x = 24 + 18

-6x = 42

x = 42 ÷ - 6

x = - 7

Brittany buys 2.55 pounds of turkey for $5.96 per pound and 3.7 pounds of
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Brittany needs another $3.7405.              

Step-by-step explanation:

Per pound Cost of turkey = $5.96 per pound

The amount Brittany buys the turkey = 2.55 pounds

Brittany's cost for turkey = 2.55 × $5.96 = $15.198

Per pound cost for cheese = $3.35 per pound

The amount Brittany buys the cheese = 3.7 pounds

Brittany's cost for cheese = 2.55 × $3.35 = $8.5425

So,

Brittany's total cost = Turkey cost + Cheese cost

                                = $15.198 + $8.5425

                                = $23.7405

As brittany gave the clerk 20 dollars.

So, the amount she further needs will be:

$23.7405 - $20 =  $3.7405

Therefore, Brittany needs another $3.7405.

Answer:

x=

y+

25/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

2x+1y=25

Step 1: Add -y to both sides.

2x+y+−y=25+−y

2x=−y+25

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.
