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

<span>x = 18</span>

What is the domain and range of g(x)= -|x+2| -1
solmaris [256]

g(x)= -|x+2| -1


The domain is the input values, or x values

it is all real number


The range is the output values, or g(x)

the absolute value at is smallest is 0

0-1 is -1  this is the max since the absolute value is multiplied by -1

g(x) <=-1

the output is less than or equal to -1
