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 slope of the line of best fit?
Ierofanga [76]

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes through the origin and point (30,3)

so, slope of the graph( miles per minute)= 3/30 = 1/10 miles per minute

Or, slope of the graph miles per hour

=  \frac{3}{ \frac{30}{60} }  =  \frac{3 \times 60}{30}  = 6

option B
