A shape that is similar to another shape will be enlarged by a scale factor. 
Each corresponding sides should give the same scale factor

Side GI corresponds to side JL
Side GH corresponds to side JK
Side HI corresponds to side KL

The correspond sides whose length are given is 
GH = 4 and JK = 8

Side JK is twice longer than GH

All the other sides of triangle JKL are twice longer than triangle GHI, so we want that the side JL to be twice of the sides GI

Side GI = 6
Side JL = 6 × 2 = 12

Answer: y = 12

I believe the answer is 19.2 because you would have to do paythag. = a^2+b^2=c2 in this case it would be 7^2 + 10^2 = c
From there you would get the answer of 149, and you would have to square root it. When you square root 149 you get 12.2
12.2 + 7 = 19.2
You would add them together because you want to know the height before it broke.

In 2007, there were 31 laptops
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

l=31+20(y-2007)

where l is the number of laptops, and y is the year.

in 2017: l=231

Step-by-step explanation:

I will define the variable x as the number of years that passed since 2007.

Since the school buys 20 lapts each year, after a number x of years, the school will have

20*x more laptops.

and thus, since the school starts with 31 laptops, the equation to model this situation is

l=31+20*x

where l is the number of laptops.

since x is the number of years that have passed since 2007, it can be represented like this:

x=y-2007

where y can be any year, so the equation to model the situation using the year:

l=31+20(y-2007)

and this way we can find the number of laptos at the end of 2017:

y=2017

and

l=31+20(y-2007)

l=31+20(2017-2007)\\l=31+20(10)\\l=31+200\\l=231

Which graph represents the solution set to this system of equations? –x + 2y = 6 and 4x + y = 3 On a coordinate plane, a line go
erastova [34]

Answer:

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (0, 3) and (2, 4) and another line goes through (0, 3) and (0.75, 0).

This answer almost coincide with option C. I suppose there was a mistype.

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations is formed by:

–x + 2y = 6

4x + y = 3

In the picture attached, the solution set is shown.

The first equation goes through (0, 3) and (2, 4), as can be checked by:

–(0) + 2(3) = 6

–(2) + 2(4) = 6

The second goes through (0, 3) and (0.75, 0), as can be checked by:

4(0) + (3) = 3

4(0.75) + (0) = 3
