<u>Given</u>:
The given triangle is a similar triangle.
The length of the hypotenuse is 18 units.
The length of the leg is a.
The length of the part of the hypotenuse is 16 units.
We need to determine the proportion used to find the value of a.
<u>Proportion to find the value of a:</u>
We shall find the proportion to determine the value of a using the geometric mean leg rule.
Applying the leg rule, we have;

Substituting the values of hypotenuse, leg and part, we get;

Thus, the proportion used to find the value of a is 
Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
Answer:
In general, the salary S in terms of years of experience Y is S = 2700Y + 3200
Step-by-step explanation:
we start at 32000 without experience.
as the experience goes up, the wage increases 2700 per year so we can multiply 2700 by the years of experience to find the increase of salary. To find the salary of a certain employee with a certain amount of experience, plug the years of experience in for Y and solve.
for Y=0
S= 2700(0) + 3200 = 0 + 3200 = 0
for Y=2
S= 2700(2) + 3200 = 5400 + 3200 = 8600
for Y=5
S= 2700(5) + 3200 = 13500 + 3200 = 16700
for Y=7
S=2700(7) + 3200 = 2700(5) + 2700(2) + 3200 = 5400 + 13500 + 3200 = 22100
Answer:
2 students
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you find the number of students eating either salads and sandwiches. Then, you add the number of students eating salads and sandwiches together. Finally, you will subtract that number from the 12 total students
<h3>2/3 * 12/1 = 8 (sandwiches)</h3><h3>1/6 * 12/1 = 2 (salads)</h3><h3>8 + 2 = 10 (combined)</h3><h3>12 - 10 = 2 students</h3><h3 />
Answer:
There is exactly one more real solution or there is exactly one more complex solution
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic equation is a polynomial of degree two
What this means is that a polynomial has two answers.
Now, from the question, we have an answer already which is a real root
Then the other answer which we do not have can take the form of two answers
It can either be a complex root or other wise be a real root
So the answer to this question is that ;
There is exactly one more real solution or there is exactly one more complex solution
