The areas of two similar triangles are 75m2 and 300m2. The length of one of the sides of the second triangles is 9m. What is the
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

4.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of two similar triangles are 75 m2 and 300 m2. This gives you the scale factor of the triangles:

\dfrac{A_{small}}{A_{large}}=k^2\Rightarrow k^2 =\dfrac{75}{300}=\dfrac{3}{12}=\dfrac{1}{4}\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{2}.

Then you can find the length of the corresponding side:

\dfrac{side_{small}}{side_{large}}=k\Rightarrow =\dfrac{side_{small}}{9}=\dfrac{1}{2},\ side_{small}=\dfrac{9}{2}=4.5\ m.

What is the solution for this inequality? -7x < -42 what is the answer and is it greater or less then x
Tom [10]
Our given inequality is:
-7x < -42
To solve for the inequality, we need to simplify for x and ensure we've carefully answered the question.
Currently, x is being multiplied by -7.
To get x by itself, we need to perform the opposite of what's being done.
Remember, what you do to one side of an equation/inequality, you must do to the other.

The opposite of multiplying is dividing.
Divide -7x by -7 to get x.

-7x / -7 = x
-42 / -7 = 6 (Dividing a negative by a negative makes a positive, the same goes with multiplying)

You're left with x < 6

When we divide/multiply by a negative, we need to flip the inequality with the opposite value.

Your final inequality is:
x _> 6

I hope this helps you. :)
