Answer:
D. 25
Step-by-step explanation:
The left end of the baseline has measure (x-16). In this geometry all of the right triangles are similar, so the short-to-long side ratios are proportional:
(x -16)/12 = 12/16
x -16 = 9 . . . . . . . multiply by 12
x = 25 . . . . . . . . . add 16
The unknown length x is 25.
Answer:
The width is 20.625 and the length is 19.375
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 2 1/2 + w = length
Let w = width
Equation:
2 1/2 + w + w = 80 Combine liked terms
2 1/2 + 2w = 80
-2 1/2 -2 1/2 Subtract 2 1/2 from both sides
2w = 77.5
÷ 2 ÷ 2 Divide 2 from both sides
w = 41.25
Length:
2 1/2 + 41.25 = 165/4 or 38.75
Width:
41.25
41.25/2 = 20.625
38.75/2 = 19.375
They are similar because they both have a similar need for electrons. An ionic bond is a bond between a metal and a nonmetal and a covalent bond is a bond between two nonmetals.
