The question is incomplete. Here is the complete one.

Hays build model sailboats as a hobby. The dimensions of the sailboats are given. What is the height, x, of the smaller sailboat's sail? Enter your answer, as a decimal, in the box. x = in. Two sailboats with sails that are right triangles.  The top angle on the sails are marked congruent to each other. The smaler sail has a a height of x and a base of 7 inches. The lareger sail has a height of 12 inches and a base of 8 inches.

Answer: x = 10.5 in

Step-by-step explanation: When two triangles are congruents it means it has the same three sides and same three angles. In the question, the two sails have the same sides and their proportions are:

\frac{7}{8} = \frac{x}{12}

x = \frac{12.7}{8}

x = \frac{84}{8}

x = 10.5

The height <u>x</u> of the smaller sail is <u>x = 10.5 in</u>.

Help me find y........​
Elodia [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

the sum of all angles in a quadrilateral must be 360º

y+88+25+35 = 360

y = 360=88-25-35

y = 212º

b)

the sum of all angles in an octagon must be 1080º

45+45+140+140+6y = 1080

6y = 1080-90-280

6y = 710

y = 710/6

y=~ 118,3º

The population of mosquitoes in a certain area increases at a rate proportional to the current population, and in the absence of
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

P=400000(2^t)-40000t

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial number of mosquitoes is 400000, and they double each day. This represents an exponential growth equation. If t represent days and P represent the population of the mosquitoes, hence this can be represented by the equation:

P=400000(2^t)

Also, the predators eat the mosquitoes at a rate of 40,000 mosquitoes/day. This means that each day, the mosquitoes reduce by 40000t, therefore this can be represented by:

P=400000(2^t)-40000t
