Yes, you are correct.
From the image, we can see 3 triangles, the large triangle and the two triangles that make the larger triangle.
All 3 of these triangles are similar since they're angle measurements are the same (can be proven by geometry).
We can gather the following information from the given information.
- The largest triangle (the one made up of two triangles) has a hypotenuse of 3+9=12, and a leg length of x. The hypotenuse to leg ratio is 12/x
- The second largest triangle has a hypotenuse length x and leg length 9. The hypotenuse to leg ratio is x/9
We know the hypotenuse to corresponding leg ratio must be equal since these two triangles are similar. Thus, we have the equation:
12/x = x/9
Using the cross product property gives us:
x² = 9 × 12
x² = 108
Taking the square root of both sides gives us:
x = √108
= 6 √3
Thus, your answer is correct. Great job!
Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
Answer:
6.84 ≤ x ≤ 37.39
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
-----> equation A
we know that
The company wants to keep its profits at or above $225,000,
so
-----> inequality B
Remember that P(x) is in thousands of dollars
Solve the system by graphing
using a graphing tool
The solution is the interval [6.78,39.22]
see the attached figure
therefore
A reasonable constraint for the model is
6.84 ≤ x ≤ 37.39
Answer:
[-1, 3, 9]
Step-by-step explanation:
when x = 2: 4-5 = -1
when x = 4: 8-5 = 3
when x = 7: 14-5 = 9
