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}

Find the slope of the line passes through the pair of points (-5.5,6.1), (-2.5,3.1)
skad [1K]
The answer would be C.

If you do -5.5 + 2.5 over 6.1 - 3.1 it would be -3 over 3 which is equal to -1.

You could also do -2.5 + 5.5 over 3.1 - 6.1. It would be 3 over -3 which is also equal to -1.
