Answer:

The correct option is B) $3x+5=17$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Mike's age is five more than three times his sister's age. Mike is seventeen years old.

Let Mike's sister age is x.

Five more than three times his sister's age can be written as:

$5+3x$

$3x+5$

Mike is seventeen years old.

$3x+5=17$

Hence, the required equation is $3x+5=17$ .

Thus, the correct option is B) $3x+5=17$ .

HELP ME Write and solve a proportion to find y.

Phoenix [80]

Given:

A figure of dilation and the center of dilation is O.

To find:

The value of y.

Solution:

The distance between center and vertex of image (d') is proportional to the distance between center and the corresponding vertex of original figure (d).

$d'\propto d$

$d'=kd$

$\dfrac{d'}{d}=k$

Where, k is the scale factor or constant of proportionality.

So, the scale factor for the given dilation is

$k=\dfrac{OB'}{OB}$

$k=\dfrac{36}{16}$

$k=\dfrac{9}{4}$

We know that,

$k=\dfrac{\text{Side length of image}}{\text{Corresponding side length of original figure}}$

$\dfrac{9}{4}=\dfrac{A'C'}{AC}$

$\dfrac{9}{4}=\dfrac{27}{y}$

$9\times y=27\times 4$

Divide both sides by 9.

$y=\dfrac{27\times 4}{9}$

$y=3\times 4$

$y=12$

Therefore, the value of y is 12.

What is the equation for this angle?

mina [271]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

115+4n-5=180 degree (being straight line)

110-4n=180

4n=180-110

n=70/4

n=17.5

therefore the value of n is 17.5 degree

substitute the value of n

4n-5

4*17.5-5
