Since the scale factor is 3:1 you can multiply the length of the side of the triangle to the right by 3 to make the ratio 3:3

the equation would be:
2x+5 = 45

subtract 5 from both sides
2x = 40

divide both sides by 2

x = 20

hope this helps

Help me on this math question thank you
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

  • C for question 1
  • A for question 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First Question

What you need to do here is pick an answer that will result in a decrease. If you have something like 1.3 * e ^ (0.038 * t), what will happen when t = 20

P = 1.3 * e^(0.038*20) = 1.3*e^0.76 = 2.77 which is getting bigger not smaller.

So what you want is something like 1.3 * e^-0.76 = 0.67

So which question is configured that way?

It's either C or D. but which one? It cannot be D. 0.38 is far too big: it does not represent 3.8%

C does represent 3.8% as a decimal. It is the correct answer.

Answer: C

Second Question

Every time she sells a ticket, the total that she gets is 4 more than what she had before.

The variation is a direct one. It is y = k*x. But what is k? Is it 4 or is it 1/4?

Read the first sentence above. She gets 4 dollars more, not 1/4 of a dollar.

C and D are both wrong because those equations think she is getting 1/4 more.

B is wrong because it says that the relationship is inverse. It is not. It is direct.

The answer is A

Drag each tile to the correct box. not all tiles will be used.Chris plans to mulch the border surrounding a rectangular garden i
amm1812

Length (L): 2w + 3

width (w): w

border (b): \frac{1}{4} w

Area (A) = (L + b) * (w + b)   <em>NOTE: This is assuming the width also has a border</em>

              = (2w + 3 + \frac{1}{4} w) * (w + \frac{1}{4} w)

              = (2\frac{1}{4} w + 3)(1\frac{1}{4} w)

              = (\frac{9}{4} w + 3)(\frac{5}{4} w)

              = \frac{45}{16} w^2 + \frac{15}{4}w

a family wants to rent a car to go on vacation. Company A charges $35.50 and 8 cents per mile. Company B charges $75.50 and 18 c
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: $40 and 10 x cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

$75.50 and 18 cents - $35.50 and 8 cents = $40.00 and 10 cents per mile. For x miles, we multiply $40.00 and 10 cents by x miles.

Also, we could convert dollars to cents by multiply it by 100 Since $1 =100 cents.

7568 - 3558 cents = 4010 cents. For x miles, 4010X cents.
