As they are similar figures,we can use the ratio of the side to find out the value of z.

The only side that both have the value indicated is 4 and 6,therefore we would use it to find the ratio.

The eqaution would be:
6/4 = z/8
3/2 = z/8
3×8 = 2z
z = 24/2
z = 12

Thus the value of z is 12.

Hope it helps!

If 2.5 is a root of the equation 2x^2+5x−q=0, what are the possible values of q?

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

q = -25 $10 +5 = \pm \sqrt{5^2-4*2*q} \\ 225 = 25-8q \\\\8q = -200 \rightarrow q = -\frac {200}8 = -25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Grab the generic solution of the equation. $\frac 52 = \frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{5^2-4*2*q}}{2*2}$ . Let's isolate the radical, and square both sides. $10 +5 = \pm \sqrt{5^2-4*2*q} \\ 225 = 25-8q \\\\8q = -200 \rightarrow q = -\frac {200}8 = -25$

If you have $65 to spend at a concert and you already spend $32.25 on a ticket and fee. What is the maximum number of shirts he

Marrrta [24]

The maximum number of shirts I can buy is 2.

14.50 x 2 = 29
14.50 x 3 = 43.5

Two shirts cost 29 dollars, and 3 shirts cost 43.5 dollars. Since $43.5 is higher than the money I currently have, I can only buy 2 shirts.
