We can see that OW/IG = 5/15 = 1/3 and CW/PG = 7/21 = 1/3. So we have two ratios that result in the same value (1/3). We would need to know if CO/IP is also 1/3 as well, so we can use the SSS similarity theorem. However we don't have that information. So we can't use SSS. 

Alternatively, if we knew that angle CWO = angle PGI, then we can use the SAS similarity theorem. But that bit of info isn't given to us, so we can't use SAS either.

AA can't be used because we don't know anything about any pairs of angles. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

In short, the answer is choice D. It cannot be determined. There isn't enough information.

Answer:

length is 20 and the width is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

so Area is 100

Area = width * length

legth = 4 * width

This means:

Area = width * 4 width =>  Area = 5 * width

We know that area is 100 so:

100 = 5 * width

that means width = 20, but wait didn't I say that the length is 20? Yes, remember we said length = 4 * width at the beginning, so <u>length = 20</u>.

Now we can easily calculate width as width is 4 times smaller than length, so:

<u>width = 20/4 => 5</u>

We can also test if this is correct by simply using the formula to calculate rectangle. So 5 * 20 = 100, correct!

Mr and mrs. Dorsey and their three children are fling to Springfield. The cost of each ticket is $179. Estimate how much the tic
Soloha48 [4]
<span>First figure out how many people there are all together. So mrs and mr is 2 there three children so 2+3=5 so next round 179 to 200 and multiply 200x5. To do that you can use the mental math way witch would be to take the whole number out of 200 and make it 2. Then take the 5 in 200x5 and multiply 2x5. Then add the 2 zeros there were. And your estamated answer would be 1,000.
2+3=5
179=200
200x5
2x5=10
1,000
To figure out your real answer you will have to take 179 and multiply it by 5 so it will look like this:
 34
179
x
   5
895
Soto conculde the answer would be:

Estamated: $1,000

Exact: $895

Hope this helps!</span>

This is a proportion. What is the value of X?
Verizon [17]

Answer:

x = 15 or x = - \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross- multiplying gives

(14x + 6)(17x + 5) = 9x(27x + 11) ( expanding factors )

238x² + 172x + 30 = 243x² + 99x

rearrange into standard form : ax² + bx + c = 0

5x² - 73x - 30 = 0 ← in standard form

consider the factors of the product 5 × - 30 = - 150 which sum to the coefficient of the x-term (- 73 )

the factors are - 75 and + 2

Use these factors to split the middle term

5x² - 75x + 2x - 30 = 0 ( factor by grouping )

5x(x - 15) + 2(x - 15) = 0 ← take out the factor (x - 15)

(x - 15)(5x + 2) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 15 = 0 ⇒ x = 15

5x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - \frac{2}{5}

HELP MATH ONE MORE AFTER THIS
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

58 units squared

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the area of the square. To do so, we need to find the hypotenuse of the right triangle because this coincides with the side length of the square.

We use the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that for a right triangle with legs a and b and hypotenuse c:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Here, a = 7 and b = 3, so:

7^2 + 3^2 = c^2

c^2 = 49 + 9 = 58

Now, the area of a square is: A = s^2, where s is the side length. Well, c is the side length, and we've already found what c^2 is (it's 58), so that means the area of the square is 58 units squared.

Thus, the answer is 58 units squared.
