Answer:

x = 33 \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{PT}{RS} = \frac{QT}{QS}, substitute values

\frac{24}{20} = \frac{40}{x} ( cross- multiply )

24x = 800 ( divide both sides by 24 )

x = \frac{800}{24} = 33 \frac{1}{3}

Earth’s surface is approximately 70% water. There is no water on the surface of Mars, and its diameter is roughly
Pie

Answer:

  Earth

Step-by-step explanation:

You don't need scientific notation.

The areas of similar figures are proportional to the square of their linear scale factor. If Mars is 1/2 the diameter of Earth, its total surface area is (1/2)² = 1/4 that of Earth.

That is, the land area of Mars is 25% of the total area of Earth.

The land area of Earth is 1-70% = 30% of the total area of Earth. 30% is more than 25%.

Earth has more land area than Mars.

A fair charges $7.25 for admission and $5.50 for a ride pass. Ten friends visited the fair. Not all of the friends purchased rid
kati45 [8]
You take
7.25 (10)+5.5p=105.5
72.5+5.5p=105.5
To make the equation easier multiply the whole equation by ten like this
(72.5+5.5p=105.5)10 that equals
725+55p=1055
Then subtract 725 to both sides
725+55p=1055
-725 -725
____ _____
55p=330
Then divide by 55 on both sides and that equals 6 so 6 people bought tickets

NO LINKS!! Part 2<br><br>Similarity Flow Chart Proofs​
STatiana [176]

Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>#4</h3>

According to diagram we have

  • QR ≅ QT
  • QS ≅ QS (common side)
  • QSR ≅ QST (both right angles)

Considering above we can state

  • QSR ≅ QST by HL (hypotenuse-leg)
<h3>#5</h3>

Two angles are congruent but the order of angles is not same

Triangles are not similar.

<h3>#6</h3>

Two angles and a side are congruent but the order of angles is not same.

Triangles are not similar.
