No, because 2/5 is .4 and 4/12 is 1/3 or .333
So Jed is much faster than Alex in free throws.
Answer:
126
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to set this up with a proportion and solve. 18/x-5 = 13.5/12.
cross multiply 13.5x-67.5=216
now solve for x
13.5x=283.5
x=21
the missing side is equal to 21-5, which is equal to16
Wow! There so much extra stuff on this drawing, naturally it's hard to see
what's going on.
First, do you remember "vertical angles" ? They're the pair of opposite angles
that form where lines cross, and they're equal.
-- It says that angle-1 is 55 degrees.
Angle-1 and angle-7 are vertical angles, so angle-7 is also 55 degrees.
-- It says that angle-4 is 60 degrees.
Angle-4 and angle-6 are vertical angles, so angle-6 is also 60 degrees.
Now you can forget about all that stuff that's outside of the triangle in the middle,
and just look at the triangle. They want you to find angle-10.
See the angles at the top of the triangle ... angle-7 and angle-6 ?
We know what both of those are. Angle-7 is 55 degrees, and angle-6 is 60 degrees.
Do you remember what the 3 angles inside a triangle always add up to ?
They always add up to 180 degrees.
Add angle-7 and angle-6 together . . . 55 + 60 = 115 degrees.
So angle-10 is just the rest of the 180 degrees inside the triangle.
Angle-10 = 180 - (115) = 65 degrees
The answers A and C contain correct information but both of them provide different advice. so the answer is literally your opinion between a and c
