If triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR, find the value of x and y.
tester [92]

Answer:

x = 9

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC ~ ΔPQR

Therefore, corresponding sides of these similar triangles will be in the proportional.

\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{BC}{QR}= \frac{AC}{PR}

\frac{6}{x}= \frac{4}{y}= \frac{8}{12}

\frac{6}{x}= \frac{8}{12}

x = \frac{12\times 6}{8}

x = 9

Similarly, \frac{4}{y}= \frac{8}{12}

y = \frac{12\times 4}{8}

y = 6

 Sandra sells necklaces at a school craft fair. She uses the equation P= 7.5n - (2.25n + 15) to determine her total profit at th
gregori [183]
The way you find profit is to subtract the revenue and the cost
Profit = Revenue - Cost
The revenue is the amount of money coming in, the cost is the amount of money going out. The goal of course is to have the revenue larger than the cost so that the profit is positive. 

So the equation given is
P = 7.5n - (2.25n+15)
and its in the form
P = R - C
where...
R = 7.5n is the revenue equation
C = 2.25n+15 is the cost equation

Focus on the revenue equation
R = 7.5n
which is the same as 
R = 7.50*n

This tells us that Sandra pulls in a total of 7.50*n dollars where n is some positive whole number. It represents the number of necklaces sold. For example, if she sold n = 10 necklaces, then
R = 7.50*n
R = 7.50*10
R = 750
meaning that Sandra has made $750 in revenue

As you can see above, the revenue is computed by multiplying the price per necklace ($7.50) by the number of necklaces sold (n) to get R = 7.50*n

So that's why the answer is $7.50

Note: The 2.25 is part of the cost equation. This is known as the variable cost. It is the cost to make one necklace ignoring the fixed cost (eg: rent). The variable cost often doesn't stay the same, but algebra textbooks often simplify this aspect.

carlos and Jacob each improve their yards by planting daylilies and ivy. They bought their supplies from the same stores. Carlos
34kurt

Answer:

Cost of each daylilies = $3

Cost of each ivy pot = $3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of 4 daylilies and 4 ivy = $24

Cost of 4 daylilies and 8 ivy = $36

Find:

Cost of each daylilies

Cost of each ivy pot

Computation:

Assume;

Cost of each daylilies = a

Cost of each ivy pot = b

So,

4a + 4b = 24....... eq 1

4a + 8b = 36 ....... eq 2

Eq2 - Eq1

8b - 4b = 36 - 24

4b = 12

b = 3

So,

Cost of each ivy pot = $3

4a + 4b = 24

4a + 4(3) = 24

4a + 12

a = 3

Cost of each daylilies = $3

What is the true solution to 3 in 2 + in 8 = 2 in (4x)
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
The first step for solving this equation is to determine the defined range.
3㏑(2) + ㏑(8) = 2㏑(4x), x > 0
Write the number 8 in exponential form.
3㏑(2) + ㏑(2³) = 2㏑(4x)
Using ㏑(a^{x}) = x × ㏑(a),, transform the expression.
3㏑(2) + 3㏑(2) = 2㏑(4x)
Now collect the like terms on the left side of the equation.
6㏑(2) = 2㏑(4x)
Switch the sides of the equation.
2㏑(4x) = 6㏑(2)
Using x × ㏑(a) = ㏑(a^{x}),, transform the expression on the left side of the equation.
㏑((4x)²) = 6㏑(2)
Using x × ㏑(a) = ㏑(a^{x}),, transform the expression on the right side of the equation.
㏑((4x)²) = ㏑(2^{6})
Since the bases of the logarithms are the same,, you need to set the arguments equal.
(4x)² = 2^{6}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both the positive and negative roots.
4x = +/- 8
Now separate the equation into 2 possible cases.
4x = 8
4x = -8
Solve the top equation for x.
x = 2
Solve the bottom equation for x.
x = 2
         , x > 0
x = -2
Lastly,, check if the solution is in the defined range to find your final answer.
x = 2
This means that the correct answer to your question is x = 2.
Let me know if you have any further questions
