distance = 500 feet

Since Δ VWX and Δ YZX are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{VW}{YZ}$ = $\frac{VX}{YX}$ = $\frac{WX}{ZX}$

completing the required values gives

$\frac{100}{l}$ = $\frac{60}{30}$ ( cross- multiply )

60l = 30 × 100 = 3000 ( divide both sides by 60 )

l = 500

distance across the swamp is 500 feet

The length of each side of an equilateral triangle is increased by 20%, resulting in triangle ABC. If the length of each side of

kompoz [17]

Answer: Area of ΔABC is 2.25x the area of ΔDEF.

Step-by-step explanation: Because equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides, area is calculated as

$A=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} a^{2}$

with a as side of the triangle.

Triangle ABC is 20% bigger than the original, which means its side (a₁) measures, compared to the original:

a₁ = 1.2a

Then, its area is

$A_{1}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}(1.2a)^{2}$

$A_{1}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}1.44a^{2}$

Triangle DEF is 20% smaller than the original, which means its side is:

a₂ = 0.8a

So, area is

$A_{2}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} (0.8a)^{2}$

$A_{2}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} 0.64a^{2}$

Now, comparing areas:

$\frac{A_{1}}{A_{2}}= (\frac{\sqrt{3}.1.44a^{2} }{4})(\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}.0.64a^{2} } )$

$\frac{A_{1}}{A_{2}} =$ 2.25

The area of ΔABC is 2.25x greater than the area of ΔDEF.

Solve for w. 5w + 9z = 2z + 3w w = w equals negative StartFraction 7 Over 2 EndFraction z.Z w = w equals negative StartFraction

TEA [102]

Answer:

w = -7z/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve for w in terms of z.

The equation given is:

5w + 9z = 2z + 3w

Collect like terms:

5w - 3w = 2z - 9z

2w = -7z

w = -7z/2

The students at Norton School were asked to name their favorite type of pet. Of the 430ilar results, about students surveyed, 25

elena-s [515]

Answer: 60

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that 430 students were surveyed and 258 said that their favorite type of pet was a dog. The fraction/decimal of those that chose dog as their favorite pet will be:

= 258/430

= 3/5

= 0.6

Suppose that only 100 students were surveyed, the number of students that would say that a dog is their favorite types of pet will be:

= 0.6 × 100

= 60
