Answer:

D. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that ΔUVW is similar to ΔXYZ and we are asked to find the length of ZX.

Since both triangles are similar, so their corresponding sides will be proportional. We will use proportions to solve our given problem as:

$\frac{ZX}{WU}=\frac{XY}{UV}$

$\frac{ZX}{5}=\frac{12}{3}$

Now, we will multiply both sides of our equation by 5.

$\frac{ZX}{5}*5=\frac{12}{3}*5$

$ZX=4*5$

$ZX=20$

Therefore, the length of ZX is 20 units and option D is the correct choice.

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the amount of visits given by the problem is:

$v=10$

and we have that the equation that relates the number of visits with the total cost is:

$c=v+7$

where $c$ is the total cost for $v$ number of visits.

We plug into this equation the known value of visitors:

$c=10+7$

and we solve this expression:

$c=17$

the total cost for 10 visitors is 17.

One container holds 1 1/7 quarts of water and second container holds 5 3/4 quarts of water how many more harts of water does the

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

129/28 (4.6 approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first hols 1 1/7 quarts, it is: 1 + 1/7

Using 7 as common denominator and summing:

1 + 1/7 = 7/7 + 1/7 = 8/7

The second holds 5 3/4 which is: 5 + 3/4. Using 4 as common denominator:

5 + 3/4 = 20/4 + 3/4 = 23/4

Now we need to know how much greater is 23/4 than 8/7. For comparing them we need to set them to a common denominator. The easiest way is use a number that is multiple of both, 4 and 7, lets us 28. We need to multiply the numerators by the number that, multiplied by denominators gives us 28. For the first is 4, and for the second 7.

8/7 = (8*4)/7*4=32/28

23/4= (23*7)/4*7 = 161/28

Now, we only have to subtract:

23/4 - 8/7 = 161/28 - 32/28 = 129/28

So, the second container has 129/28 more quarts of water (approx. 4.60) than the first.
