Complete question is attached.

Answer:

B) 8

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, KLMN ~ PQRS. This means they are similar shapes.

From the image, we could denote that:

KL ~ PQ

LM ~ QR

Given that:

KL = 12

PQ = 30

QR = 20

LM = x

To find x, let's use tge expression:

\frac{KL}{PQ} = \frac{LM}{QR}

=  \frac{12}{30} = \frac{x}{20}

Cross multiplying, we have:

12 * 20 = 30x

240 = 30x

To find x, let's divide both sides by 30.

\frac{240}{30} = \frac{30x}{30}

8 = x

x = 8

The correct option is option B.

There are 8 performers who will present their comedy acts this weekend at a comedy club. One of the performers insists on being
Korvikt [17]
This is a permutations problem. There are only 7 comics you can move into different time slots, the 8th one being fixed in that last position. So you can look at it this way:
For the 1st position, you can choose from all 7 people. Once you've picked that one, you have 6 people to choose from for the 2nd position, and similarly for the remaining ones . This gives you 7x6x5x4x3x2x1 = 5040 ways to arrange them. And the last comic stays in the same position all the time so does not change this number. Make sense? If you need to demonstrate it to yourself, use a smaller number of comics, like 3 or 4, and write out the combinations to see that it works.

Write a system of equations in x and y describing the situation. Do not solve the system. Keiko has a total of $ 5600 comma$5600
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The correct answers are x + y = 5600 and x - y = 700.

Step-by-step explanation:

Write a system of equations in x and y describing the situation. Do not solve the system.

Keiko has a total of $ 5600, which she has invested in two accounts.

Let x be the amount of money in the larger account and y be the amount of money in the smaller​ account.

So, Keiko has invested her $5600 in two accounts x and y.

Thus x + y = 5600.

Also, given by the problem, the larger account (x) is $ 700 greater than the smaller account (y).​

Thus x - y = 700.

Thus the two system of equation in x and y describing the given situation are

x + y = 5600 and x - y = 700

F(x) = (x - 4)(x+2) ?
oee [108]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x - 4)(x + 2)

f(x) = x^2 + 2x - 4x - 8

f(x) = x^2 - 2x - 8

Solve the inequality 171>-6x and graph the solution what does the graph look like
krok68 [10]

To solve the inequality, you need to isolate/get x by itself:

171 > -6x    Divide -6 on both sides [dividing/multiplying a negative number on

-28.5 < x      [dividing/multiplying a negative number in an inequality causes the sign (<, >, ≤, ≥) to flip]

-28.5 < x    [x is a number greater than -28.5]

So your graph should have an open circle at -28.5 (the first small line next to -28), and the arrow pointing to the right since x is greater than -28.5 (increasing)      The 1st option is your answer

[use the o---> and put it at -28.5]
