Identify the similar triangles in the figure, then find the value of x.
1 answer:
Answer:
Part a) ABD and CDE are similar by AA Similarity Postulate
Part b)
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and its corresponding angles are congruent
In this figure Triangles ABD and CDE are similar by AA Similarity Postulate
substitute the values

Answer:
1. ridescost+admission=total
if x=number of tickets and y is total and cost per ride is 1.25 then
1.25x+admission=y
if we solve
when x=25, y=43.75
1.25(25)+admission=43.75
31.25+admission=43.75
minus 31.25 from both sides
admission=12.50
a.
y=1.25x+12.5
b.
x is number of tickets and y is total cost
c. math, seriously, just read what is above option a (the one in the top of the answer)
if you're too lazy then:
ridescost+admission=total
if x=number of tickets and y is total and cost per ride is 1.25 then
1.25x+admission=y
if we solve
when x=25, y=43.75
2.
(a)
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (4 - 9)/(-2 - 8) = -5/(-10) = 1/2
(b)
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Using the first given point,
y - 9 = (1/2)(x - 8)
Using the second given point,
y - 4 = (1/2)(x + 2)
note they both simplify to
y = (1/2)x + 5
(c)
y = (1/2)x + 5
