The small arcs inside the triangle show that they are similar, so first find the ratio between the similar sides that both have given lengths.

JK is 25, and MN is 30.


30/25 = 1.2


This means the larger triangle is 1.2 times the size of the smaller one.


So MP needs to equal 1.2 x the length of JL:

JL = 20

20 * 1.2 = 24


Now you have 4x-4 = 24

Now silve for x:

Add 4 to each side:

4x = 28

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 28 / 4

x = 7

Sadie brought $28.00 to the art supply store. She bought a brush, a sketchbook, and a paint set. The brush was 1/3 as much as th
Digiron [165]

Answer:

cost of paint set = $ 13.64

cost of sketch book = $ 6.82

cost of brush = $ 4.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of paint set is s.

cost of sketch book = s/2

cost of brush = s/3

Money spent = $ 28 - $ 3 = $ 25

So,

s +  s/2 + s/3 = 25

6 s + 3 s + 2 s = 150

11 s = 150

s = $ 13.64

cost of paint set = $ 13.64

cost of sketch book = $ 6.82

cost of brush = $ 4.55

WORTH 25 POINTS PLEASE HELP!!!
GalinKa [24]
Just subtract the smaller volume from the larger:

10 × 10 ×15 - 7 × 9 × 12 

First you would multiply 10 × 10 × 15 = 1500 and then multiply 7 × 9 × 12 = 756.

After you would subtract 1500 - 756 which would give you 744

I hope that helped!

The probability would be 0.1971.

We will calculate a z-score for each end of this interval.

z = (X-μ)/σ

For the lower limit:
z = (1100-1050)/218 = 50/218 = 0.23

For the upper limit:
z = (1225-1050)/218 = 175/218 = 0.80

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that the area under the curve to the left of, less than, the lower limit is 0.5910.  The area under the curve to the left of, less than, the upper limit is 0.7881.  To find the area between them, we subtract:

0.7881 - 0.5910 = 0.1971
