Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:

We start out by observing that Triangles MKR & ACD are similar or proportional

\begin{gathered} MK=21;AC=\text{?} \\ MR=24;AD=28\frac{4}{5} \\ KR=CD=\text{?} \end{gathered}

We will solve for the missing side by using the similar triangle theorem. This is shown below:~

\begin{gathered} \Delta MKR\approx\Delta ACD \\ \frac{MK}{AC}=\frac{MR}{AD} \\ \frac{21}{AC}=\frac{24}{28\frac{4}{5}} \\ \text{Cross multiply, we have:} \\ 24\cdot AC=28\frac{4}{5}\cdot21 \\ AC=\frac{28\frac{4}{5}\cdot21}{24}=25\frac{1}{5} \\ AC=25\frac{1}{5} \end{gathered}

Gianna bought 6.2 pounds of berries. She used 4.8 pounds of the berries to make a pie. What equation can be used to find how man
nirvana33 [79]
The answer is C. 4.8+b=6.2

This is because the total amount of berries she bought was 6.2 pounds

She used 4.8 pounds of berries and is left with b amount of berries

If you add the amount of berries used (4.8) to the amount left (b) you will get 6.2 pounds of berries

So the equation you can use to find the amount of berries left is 4.8 + b = 6.2
