Answer: x = 7
`Step-by-step explanation:
Because the figure shows two triangles that are similar. we can write and solve an equation of ratios:
9 cm 72 cm
----------- = -----------
3x - 20 56 cm
Cross-multiplying, we get (3x - 20)(72 cm) = (9 cm)(56 cm) = 504 cm²
Dividing both sides by 72 cm, we get:
3x - 20 = (504 cm²) / (72 cm) = 7
Then 3x - 20 = 7, and 3x = 27. Then x must be 9.
Answer:
1.33
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the measure of angle a, subtract 151 from 180. (Reason: line w equals 180º, and the second angle is the same size as the 151º angle.)
180 - 151 = 29
<h2>Answer:</h2>
<u>Angle a = </u><u>29º</u>
It took her 4 hours.
Since she travels 50 miles in just one hour, in four hours she could drive 200 miles. :)
