Mathematics

zmey [24]3 years ago

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Because these two triangles share an angle and their corresponding sides are parallel, they are similar.

So, we can set up a proportion relating corresponding sides:

10 / (10 + 8) = (3x - 6) / (3x - 6 + 12)

10/18 = (3x - 6) / (3x + 6)

Cross-multiply:

18 * (3x - 6) = 10 * (3x + 6)

54x - 108 = 30x + 60

24x = 168

x = 168/24 = 7

The answer is 7.

Alicia, Quentin, and Rosalyn are siblings. Alicia is the oldest sibling. Quentin is four years younger than Alicia. Rosalyn is t
tatiyna

Answer:

Alicia is 18years

Quentin is 14years

Rosalyn is 16years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Alicia be x

Let the age of Quentin be y

Let the age of Rosalyn be z

If the sum of the siblings’ ages, in years, is 48 then;

x+y+z = 48.... 1

If Rosalyn is two years older than Quentin then;

z =y+2 ..... 2

Also if Quentin is four years younger than Alicia then;

y = x-4 ... 3

From 3:

x = y+4 ... 4

Substitute 2 and 4 into 1 to have:

y+4+y+y+2 = 48

3y + 6= 48

3y = 48-6

3y= 42

y = 14

Since x= y+4

x = 14+4

x = 18

Since z = y+2

z = 14+2

z = 16year

This means that;

Alicia is 18years

Quentin is 14years

Rosalyn is 16years

3241004551 [841]

Answer: Hence, the value of expression is 30 when p = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

4p-2

and we have p = 8.

So, we substitute the value of p in the above expression.

so, it becomes,

4(8)-2\\\\4\times 8-2\\\\=32-2\\\\=30

Hence, the value of expression is 30 when p = 8.
