Answer:
what questions
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's list the lengths of the sides in descending order.
Lengths of sides of quadrilateral ABCD: 20, 18, 14, a
Lengths of sides of quadrilateral EFGH: b, c, 6, 5
From the listings above, we see that he sides measuring 14 and 6 are corresponding.
We are looking for c which corresponds to 18.
14 is to 6 is as 18 is to c
14/6 = 18/c
7/3 = 18/c
7c = 3 * 18
7c = 54
c = 54/7 = 7 5/7
Answer: 7 5/7 feet
Answer: 14 gallons of gasoline.
Step-by-step explanation:
given data:
25(x + 3) = 424
where x is the number of gallon of gasoline needed to purchase.
Solution.
25(x + 3) = 424
first we open the bracket
25x + 75 = 424
collect like terms
25x = 424 – 75
25x = 349
divide both sides by 25
25x/25 = 349/25
x = 13.96
x = 14
mathew needs to get 14 gallons of gasoline.
