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}

katrin [286]

Answer:

option a)

y = m(0.5) + 1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

<h3>y = mx + c</h3>

represent the equation of straight line

here m = gradient of straight line

         c = y-intercept

First find the gradient of the graph

<h3>m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1</h3>

    = 4 - 3 / 4 - 2

    = 1 / 2

Put the values in the equation of straight line

y =mx + c

4 = 1/2(4) + c

c = 2

y = 1/2x + 2

which is approximately equal to y = 0.5x + 1.8

the doctor recommended that Matt increase the number of calories you consume from 2000 to 2800 by what percent did the number of
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

40% number of calories have increased

Step-by-step explanation:

Old Value ( Calories consume before)  = 2000

New Value (increase in Calories consumed) = 2800

We need to find by what percent did the number of calories increase ​

To find percent increase, the formula used is:

Percent\: increase=\frac{New\:Value-Old\:Value}{Old\:Value}\times 100%

Putting values in formula and finding percent increase

Percent\: increase=\frac{New\:Value-Old\:Value}{Old\:Value}\times 100\%\:\\Percent\: increase=\frac{2800-2000}{2000}\times 100\%\: \\Percent\: increase=\frac{800}{2000}\times 100\%\: \\Percent\: increase=0.4\times 100\%\: \\Percent\: increase=40\%

So, 40% number of calories have increased

Gwar [14]
Alright

for a 45-45-90 triangle, if the legs are x then the hytponuse is x√2


so LM=x√2 is right
NM=x

also, tan=oposite side/adjacent side
so that would be LN/MN or MN/LN=x/x=1

so that would be tan(45)=1

so you want to check the 1st one, 3rd one and 5th one

NM=x
LM=x√2
tan(45°)=1 are the answers
