So in matt's equation, he made a mistake in the a transision from line 2 to line 3
in line 2: -4(-2)2
in line 3: -4(4)
the mistake is that -2 times 2 is not equal +4 it is equal to -4
also from lines 5 to 6 he made a mistake in order of opperations (mulit division then addition and subtract)
line 5: -10+30/5
line 6: 20/5
so he first subtracted 10 then divided, he should have divided then subtracted
so the equation should have equaled
Karen used the correct (-) times (+) property and the order of operations
so Karen is correct and Matt is wrong.
Answer: 6.75 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, the ratio of the side of the similar triangle = 2 : 3
Thus, by the property of similar triangle,
The ratio of the altitudes of the triangle = 2 : 3
Let the altitude of smaller triangle = 2 x
And, the altitude of larger triangle = 3 x
Where x is any number.
According to the question,
2 x = 4.5
x = 2.25
Therefore, the altitude of larger triangle = 3 × 2.25 = 6.75 feet
Answer: x= 1
