Answer:
x = 7 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The smaller triangle is 6/9 = 2/3 the size of the larger triangle, so the left side is ...
(x -2) = (2/3)(8)
3(x -2) = 16 . . . . . multiply by 3 to clear fractions
3x -6 = 16 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
3x = 22 . . . . . . . . add 6; next divide by 3*
x = 22/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . . feet
_____
* Note that we multiplied by 3, then divided by 3. If you're comfortable working with fractions and/or mixed numbers, these steps are unnecessary. The answer is simply x = 2 + 16/3 = 22/3.
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: g(6) = 4 - 2 x 6
Step 2: g(6) = 4 - 12
Step 3: g(6) = -8
Step 4: g(9) = 4 - 2 x 9
Step 5: g(9) = 4 - 18
Step 6: g(9) = -14
(Final Step) Step 7: g(6) - g(9) = -8 - (-14) = 6
use y = mx + b
this is slope and y intercept
m is slope b is y intercept
y = 1/4x -2
1/4 is 5oz, so you have 15 oz left
<span>Subtract 3 oz and you have 12/20 oz left </span>
<span>Divide numerator and denominator by gcf WHICH IS 4 </span>
<span>and you'll see that 3/5 is left over.</span>
