You would do 45 divided by 9 which is 5. Then you do 5x7= 35 and that's your answer
Since ΔABC ~ ΔEDC, ∠B = ∠D.
Since both triangles appear to be similar, the corresponding angles are the same, and corresponding sides are the same or have the same ratio.
We can write an equation to resemble the problem:
8x + 16 = 120
Solve for x.
8x + 16 = 120
~Subtract 16 to both sides
8x + 16 - 16 = 120 - 16
~Simplify
8x = 104
~Divide 8 to both sides
8x/8 = 104/8
~Simplify
x = 13
Therefore, the answer is 13.
Best of Luck!
1.) f(x)=7(b)^x-2
x=0→f(0)=7(b)^0-2=7(1)-2=7-2→f(0)=5→(x,f(x))=(0,5) Ok
2.) f(x)=-3(b)^x-5
x=0→f(0)=-3(b)^0-5=-3(1)-5=-3-5→f(0)=-8→(x,f(x))=(0,-8) No
3.) f(x)=5(b)^x-1
x=0→f(0)=5(b)^0-1=5(1)-1=5-1→f(0)=4→(x,f(x))=(0,4) No
4.) f(x)=-5(b)^x+10
x=0→f(0)=-5(b)^0+10=-5(1)+10=-5+10→f(0)=5→(x,f(x))=(0,5) Ok
5.) f(x)=2(b)^x+5
x=0→f(0)=2(b)^0+5=2(1)+5=2+5→f(0)=7→(x,f(x))=(0,7) No
Answers:
First option: f(x)=7(b)^x-2
Fourth option: f(x)=-5(b)^x+10
Let

be the number of rides Chandler takes in a month. Then the cost with the MetroCard is still $81, but the cost without the MetroCard is

. So we can set up an equation representing what we want: "The cost with a MetroCard of r rides in a month is less than the cost without a MetroCard." In equations,

Thus, at a minimum, Chandler must take 41 rides for his MetroCard to be cheaper than not having it.
