If two triangles are similar then the corresponding sides are in proportion. Thus,

AB / AU = BC / UV = AC / AV

AB / (20x+108) = 703 / 444

Where AB is equivalent to:

AB = AU + UB

AB = 20x + 108 + 273

AB = 20x + 381

Therefore going back to the first equation:

(20x + 381) / (20x + 108) = 703/444

444 (20x + 381) = 703 (20x + 108)

8880x + 169164 = 14060x + 75924

14060x - 8880x = 169164 – 75924

5180 x = 93240

x = 93240 / 5180

ZARA'S DAD IS 6 TIMES OLDER THAN ZARA. THE PRODUCT THEIR AGE IS 150 YEARS. CALCULATE THEIR RESPECTIVE AGES
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Zara = 5
Her Dad = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say Zara's age is "z"
So, her dad's age must be 6 x z = 6z
As its given that there product is 150 so we can also write it as :

z x 6z = 150
6z to the power 2 = 150
z to the power 2 = 150 divided by 6
                            = 25
So, z = 5
So Zara's age is 5 so her dad's age must be 30

The 8th number in this sequence is -16. You are subtracting 3 between each set of numbers.

a1= 8-5= 3
a2= 5-2= 3
a3= 2-(-1)= 3
a4= -1 - (-4)= 3
a5= -4 - (-7)= 3
a6= -7 - (-10)= 3
a7= -10 - (-13)= 3
a8= -13 - (-16)= 3

ANSWER: -16

Hope this helps! :)

Hey can u help me how to do this plz.
Svetach [21]
Okay so x represents the amount of tickets sold. So first, you’d add the $40 + $70 which equals $110. So x = $110.

Now we have to solve for y. Same thing but with different numbers. $200 + $260 = $460.
The answer is (110,460)
x. y.
