Answer:
a. FG ≈ 6.983 cm
b. FH = 13.16 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>a)</h3>
Corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional. This means ...
FG/GH = CD/DE
FG = GH(CD/DE) = (9.4 cm)(2.6/3.5) . . . . . . multiply by GH; fill in values
FG ≈ 6.983 cm
__
<h3>b)</h3>
And ...
FH/GH = CE/DE
FH = GH(CE/DE) = (9.4 cm)(4.9/3.5)
FH = 13.16 cm
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
Corresponding vertices are listed in the same order in the similarity statements. This means, for example, segment FG (which names the first two vertices in the name of ΔFGH) will correspond to segment CD (which names the first two vertices of ΔCDE).
Answer:
X ≤ 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the additional fee for a piece of luggage is only charged if it weighs more than 50 lbs, than Michael's suitcase weight must be less than, or equal to, 50 lbs. Using 'X' as the weight of Michael's suitcase in pounds:
X ≤ 50
'X' is less than or equal to 50 lbs
To solve this you need to use the formula for Chord-Chord length. You need to know it, it is ab=cd. with this, we can plug numbers in.
a=30
b=x+1
c=2x-6
d=21
So our new equation is:
30(x+1)=21(2x-6)
30x+30=42x-126
156=12x
x=13
This isn't what the question is askign for though, it wants YZ
Which is A+B or 30+x+1 or 21+13=34.
YZ=34
Answer:
-4x<16 the sign flips if you divide by a negative
Step-by-step explanation:
4x<-16
x<-4
but
-4x<16
x>-4
-7x > -42. So you divide on both sides by -7 and that gives you x > 6
