If two triangles are similar then the corresponding sides are in proportion. Thus,

AB / AU = BC / UV = AC / AV

AB / (20x+108) = 703 / 444

Where AB is equivalent to:

AB = AU + UB

AB = 20x + 108 + 273

AB = 20x + 381

Therefore going back to the first equation:

(20x + 381) / (20x + 108) = 703/444

444 (20x + 381) = 703 (20x + 108)

8880x + 169164 = 14060x + 75924

14060x - 8880x = 169164 – 75924

5180 x = 93240

x = 93240 / 5180

HELP PLEASEEEE!! First correct answer gets brainliest ! ​
mylen [45]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is rise/run.

First, you must choose any two points on the line.

Rise is how many spaces a line moves upward or downward from one point to another.

The run is how many spaces a line moves left or right from one point to another.

It is given that from point M to point N, the line moves up 4 spaces and runs to the right 2 spaces.

  • 4 = rise
  • 2 = run
  • Slope = 4/2, which can be simplified to 2, because 4 divided by 2 is 2.

When a constant force acts upon an object, the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. When a certain constan
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

14 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question

a ∝ F/m.............. Equation 1

Where a = aceleration, m = mass, F = force

make F the subject of the equation

F = ma............ equation 2

Given: m = 7 kg, a = 4 m/s²

Therefore,

F = 7(4)

F = 28 N

For another object whose mass is 2 kg,

Make a the subject of equation 2

a = F/m

a = 28/2

a = 14 m/s²
