We sketch the two similar shapes and they are as shown in the attachment. We want to write corresponding side's length in ratio

LN : LK = x-3 : (x-3+x+2) = (x-3) : (2x-1)
LO : LJ = (x-4) : (x-4+x) = (x-4) : (2x-4)

Writing the two ratio as fraction gives
\frac{x-3}{2x-1} =  \frac{x-4}{2x-4}

Cross multipliying gives (x-3)(2x-4)=(x-4)(2x-1)

we know that

If NO II KJ

then

triangles LKJ and LNO are similar and the ratio of the corresponding sides are equals

so

\frac{LO}{LN}= \frac{LJ}{LK}

we have

LO=(x-4)\ in

LN=(x-3)\ in

LJ=LO+OJ=(x-4)+x=2x-4\ in

LK=LN+NK=(x-3)+(x-2)=2x-1\ in

substitute

\frac{x-4}{x-3}=\frac{2x-4}{2x-1} \\ \\(x-4)*(2x-1)=(2x-4)*(x-3)\\ \\2x^{2} -x-8x+4=2x^{2} -6x-4x+12\\ \\-9x+10x=12-4\\ \\ x=8\ units

therefore

<u>the answer is the option</u>

x=8\ units

F(x) = 2(x+1)3 even or odd
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Neither even  nor odd.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =  2(x + 1)^3 = 2x^3 + 18x^2 + 54x + 54

f(-x) =  -2x^3 + 18x^2 - 54x + 54

If it was even f(x) would be = f(-x)   so it is NOT EVEN.

-f(x) =  2x^3 - 18x^2 + 54x - 54

So f(-x) is not = -f(x) so it is not ODD either.

I WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST! Solve the following
deff fn [24]

Answer:

6)

a. x=35

b. x=4

c. x=30

Step-by-step explanation:

6a) 7/9=x/45

7/9×45=x

7×45/9=x

315/9=x

35=x

x=35

————————

b. 10/8=5/x

5/4=5/x

5/4x=5(the x is in the middle of the division sign here)

5x/4=5(the x is NOT in the middle of the division sign)

5x=5×4

5x=20

x=20/5

x=4

———————

c. x/34=15/17

x=15/17×34

x=15×34/17

x=510/17

x=30

hope that helped you. I can't answer number 7, I'm sorry

a 3 inch radius circle is drawn inside a 7 in radius Circle if you throw a dart at the circles what is the probability you land
bulgar [2K]

Answer:0.82

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to determine the areas of the inner and the bigger circles.

The formula for determining the area of a circle is expressed as

Area = πr²

Where

r represents the radius of the circle.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

Considering the inner circle,

diameter = 148.4 cm

Radius = 3 inches

Area = 3.14 × 3² = 28.26 inches²

Considering the bigger circle,

Radius = 7 inches

Area = 3.14 × 7² = 153.86 inches²

The area between the bigger and inner circles is

153.86 - 28.26 = 125.6 inches²

Probability = number of favourable outcome/number of total outcome.

the probability you land inside the bigger circle but outside smaller circle is

125.6/153.86 = 0.82
