Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
these triangles are not similar, you can tell, b/c the one given angle and that they are both right triangles, so you also know that the other angle , that is not given is not the same, in the two. hence the sides are not the same lengths or ratios of each other. they are NA
The rate Ritz can eat apples is 8/15 apples per minute.
Set the rate (which is measured apples / minutes) equal to 16 apples / t minutes.
(8/15) = (16/t)
Cross multiply.
16*15 = 8t
t = 20
The answer is 30 minutes. You could solve the problem with basic reasoning as well. 16 is twice the number of apples as 8, so the time it takes to eat them will be double 15 minutes.
Answer: He is not correct.
Steps:
Let x1 and x2 be the first and second number, respectively.
In words, if the second is 125%, or 5/4 of the first number (first equation),
then the first is 4/5 of the second, which is 0.8 or 80%.
9(-6x-2)-7(-10x-2)
Simplify, by distributing the 9 and the -7
-54x-18+70x+14
Combine like terms
16x-4 is the simplified expression
