Answer:
x = 28/3
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this problem by using similar triangles:
Both of these triangles have a 90 degree angle and they share angle A, meaning that they are similar by AA similarity.
Now we can set up ratios and solve:
13/7 = (x+8)/x
multiply both sides by x:
13x/7 = x+8
Multiply both sides by 7:
13x = 7x + 56
move the 7x over and divide by 6:
6x = 56
x = 28/3
Answer:
a = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
The altitude YB is at right angles to the base XZ , then
∠ YBZ = 90° , so
6a - 6 = 90 ( add 6 to both sides )
6a = 96 ( divide both sides by 6 )
a = 16

The correct answer is 9.5 feet.
At heart we're being asked for a line through two points,

In general the line through (a,b) and (c,d) is

Check that you understand why both (a,b) and (c,d) are on this line.
Here our indepedent variable, instead of x, is T, temperature. Our dependent variable is v, velocity. Substituting,





That's our answer; let's check it.
When T=40, v = (5/9)40 + (2995/9) = 355 good
When T=49, v= (5/9)49 + (2995/9) = 360 good
