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!

Complete the statements. If both expressions have the same value after substituting and simplifying two different values for the
8_murik_8 [283]

When both expressions have the same value,  then they are equal to each other.

<h3>What is an equivalent expression?</h3>

The equivalent is the expressions that are in different forms but are equal to the same value.

Consider the expressions 5 + 8k and 8k + 5.

Using k = 3

5 + 8k = 8k + 5

5 + 8(3) = 8(3) + 5

5 + 24 = 24 + 5

29 = 29

Using k = 5

5 + 8k = 8k + 5

5 + 8(5)= 8(5) + 5

5 + 40 = 40 + 5

45 = 45

Learn more about the equivalence on:

<u>Complete question:</u>

Consider the expressions 5 + 8k and 8k + 5. Determine why the expressions are equivalent.

Using k = 3 5 + 8k 8k + 5 5 + 8(3) 8(3) + 5 5 + 24 = 29 24 + 5 = 29

Using k = 5 5 + 8k 8k + 5 5 + 8(5) 8(5) + 5 5 + 40 = 45 40 + 5 = 45

Complete the statements.

If both expressions have the same value after substituting and simplifying two different values for the variable, then they are.

The value of both expressions when k = 3 is and when k = 5 is 45, so the expressions are.

Explain how to determine the zeros of f(x)= (x+3)(x-2)(x-6)
Deffense [45]

Answer:

The zeros of f(x)  are -3, 2 , 6

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) is a polynomial of degree 3.

If the polynomial is not factorized we will either factorize to find the zero or use trial and error method.

Since the f(x) in the question is in the factorized form. we will have to equate each factor to zero.

f(x) = (x+3)(x-2)(x-6)

x + 3 = 0 => x = -3

x - 2 = 0 =>  x = 2

x - 6 = 0 => x = 6
