I don't know what you mean by unknown factor but a quotient is the answer of a division problem
Oh okie so sorry sorry about the delay in
Since the triangles are similar, all sides are proportional by the same scale factor.
The relationship between the bases 32 and 8 is 4 (32/8 = 4). This means that the smaller triangle need to be multiplied by a scale factor 4 to result in the bigger triangle.
This means that 4x + 12 is 4 times greater than 15.
The equation to solve for x can be written as:
4x + 12 = 4*15
Now just solve for x as u normally would
4x + 12 = 60
(Subtract twelve from both sides)
4x = 48
(Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x)
x = 12
I hope this somewhat helped :)
Was my explanation clear enough?
Answer:
97.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
110 is 2 standard deviations above the mean (6+6 = 12)
12+98 = 110
Looking at the standard deviation curve
P(x< or = to 110) = 1 - P(x>110)
We can find the probability that x>100 by adding anything above 2 standard deviations above the curve.
P(x>110) = 2.1+.1 = 2.2%
P(x< or = to 110) = 1 - P(x>110)
= 1- 2.2%
= 1- .022
= .978
= 97.8 %
