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!

Gabriella and her children went into a restaurant where they sell hotdogs for $4 each and tacos for $2 each. Gabriella has $30 t
Lorico [155]

A possible solution to the inequality is 2 hotdogs and 8 tacos.

Let x represents the number of hotdogs purchased and y represents the number of tacos purchased.

Gabriella has $30 to spend and must buy a minimum of 9 hotdogs and tacos altogether.

Hence:

4x + 2y ≤ 30    (1)

x + y ≥ 9      (2)

Also:

x ≥ 2   (3)

A possible solution to the inequality is 2 hotdogs and 8 tacos.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the gi
Marrrta [24]
 y = x - 2.....the slope here is 1. A parallel line will have the same slope

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 1
(2,-2)...x = 2 and y = -2
now we sub and find b, the y int
-2 = 1(2) + b
-2 = 2 + b
-2 - 2 = b
-4 = b

so ur parallel line is : y = x - 4
