Answer:
-6/7 < -1/7
because it is more than negative one by seven
If triangle abc is similar to def
That means all angles are the same and sides will be multiplied by some factor x. So AB(x)= DE
8x=24
Therefore x =3
Now BC=EF/x
BC=42/3
BC= 14
Answer:
k = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
If the line passing through the points A (-1,3k) and B (k , 3) is parallel to the line whose equation is 2y+3x=9, then their slopes are equal
For coordinate AB;
slope m1 = 3 - 3k/k-(-1)
m1 = 3-3k/k+1
For the line 2y+3x = 9
2y = -3x + 9
y = -3/2 x + 9/2
Slope m2 = -3/2
Since m1 = m2
3-3k/k+1 = -3/2
Cross multiply
2(3-3k) = -3(k+1)
Expand
6 - 6k = -3k - 3
-6k+3k = -3 - 6
-3k = -9
k = -9/-3
k = 3
Hence the value of k is 3
