Answer:
(-1,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two triangles, a big triangle and a small triangle that is inside the big triangle. Because the base of the triangles are parallel to each other( indicated by the arrow), and the small triangle is perfectly inside the bigger triangle, the sides of the triangles are proportional.
It is know that the base of the small triangle is 3.5, and the hypotenuse of the small triangle is 7cm. it is also known that the the hypotenuse of the big triangle is (7+8)=15 and the base of the big triangle is unknown.
Since the triangles are proportional,
to find the base of the big triangle
base(big)/hypotenuse(big)=base(small)/hypotenuse(small)
Plug in the numbers
x/15=3.5/7
x/15=1/2
x=15/2
x=7.5
The length of the base of the big triangle is 7.5cm
Y-intercept: (0, -6)
x-intercept: (-8, 0)
Answer:
$16
Step-by-step explanation:
This method is probbaly working backwards. I'm not sure.
12 - 4 = 8 (How much she was left with if she didn't wash the car for 4 dollars)
8 x 2 = 16 (They mentioned she spent half of her weekly allowance)
