Answer:

QR = 6.8

XZ = 16.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve since the triangles are similar

7.2         QR

------- = ------------

18           17

Using cross products

7.2 *17 = QR*18

Divide by 18

7.2 *17/18 = QR*18/18

QR = 6.8

7.2          6.5

------- = ------------

18           XZ

Using cross products

7.2 XZ = 6.5*18

Divide by 7.2

7.2 XZ = 6.5*18/7.2

XZ = 16.25

Answer:

a) 16.25 centimeters

b) 6.8 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion for both of these problems.

a) Look at the longest side of each triangle. We can set up a fraction: 7.2/18. We can also set up a fraction for XZ and PR:

6.5/x

x represents the length you're trying to find.

Since the triangles are similar, we have an equation:

7.2/18=6.5/x

Cross multiply

16.25

XZ is 16.25 centimeters long.

b)

We can do same thing:

7.2/18=x/17

Cross multiply

6.8

QR is 6.8 centimeters long.

Hope this helps!

Judy uses 9.7 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls.3/5
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

3.88 Pints

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the amount of blue paint that was used. We can do that by multiplying 9.7 by 0.60 since that is 3/5 in decimal form

9.7*0.60=5.82

Now we know how much blue paint was used, now we just need to find how much white paint was used. We can do that by subtracting our amount of blue paint from the total amount of paint used

9.7-5.82=3.88

thus, 3.88 is the amount of white paint used

If f(x) = 3x -2 and g(x).= 4x + 1.<br> what is the sum of f(2) and g(-3)
ira [324]

Answer:

The sum of f(2) and g(-3) is -7.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3x - 2

f(2) = 3(2)-2

f(2) = 6 -2 = 4

g(x) = 4x + 1

g(-3) = 4(-3) +1

g(-3) = -12 + 1 = -11

f(2) + g(-3) = 4 + (-11)

f(2) + g(-3) = -7

There are three kinds of statement that we could construct base on the given where as Vertical angels are congruent. First is converse: If angle 1 is 90 degree then angle 2 is 90. Second is Inverse: If angle 2 is not 90 then angle 1 is not. Third is Contrapositive: If angle 2 is not 90 then angle 1 is not 90 also.
