Answer:

The value of x is $16\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and is called the scale factor

$\frac{12}{3} =\frac{x}{4}\\ \\x=12*4/3\\ \\x=16\ units$

Solve the system of equations by substitution: y = x - 2

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x - 2

x + y = 12

Substitute the first expression for y into the second equation.

x + (x - 2) = 12

2x - 2 = 12

2x = 14

x = 7

Now plug into either equation to find y.

y = 7 - 2

y = 5

So the solution is (7, 5).

The mean amount spent by a family of four on food is $500 per month with a standard deviation of $75. Assuming that the food cos

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

$z=\frac{x- \mu}{\sigma}$

And replacing we got:

$z=\frac{425-500}{75}= -1$

And we can calculate this probabilit using the normal standard distribution or excel and we got:

$P(z$

Step-by-step explanation:

If we define the random variable of interest "the amount spent by a family of four of food per month" and we know the following parameter:

$\mu = 500, \sigma = 75$

And we want to find the following probability:

$P(X$

And we can use the z score formula given by:

$z=\frac{x- \mu}{\sigma}$

And replacing we got:

$z=\frac{425-500}{75}= -1$

And we can calculate this probabilit using the normal standard distribution or excel and we got:

$P(z$

Solve the inequality. 2(4+2x)25x+5

Inessa [10]

Answer:

x ≤ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(4 + 2x) ≥ 5x + 5 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

8 + 4x ≥ 5x + 5 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

8 ≥ x + 5 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

3 ≥ x , hence

x ≤ 3
