Answer: The value of x will make the triangles similar by the SSS similarity theorem is 30

Third option 30

Solution:

The similarity theorem indicates that the sides of similar triangles must be proportional, then:

x/45=x/45=50/75

x/45=50/75

Solving for x: Multiplying both sides of the equation by 45:

45(x/45)=45(50/75)

x=(45)(50)/75

x=2,250/75

x=30

Answer:

The answer is the option

$x=30$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

In this problem

$\frac{x}{45}=\frac{50}{75}$

solve for x

$x=45*50/75$

$x=30$

Hello there!

x² + x = 7/4
x² + - 7/4 = 0

Now we gonna use the quadratic formula to find x
a= 1
b=1
c = -1.75

x = -b+/-√b² -4ac all of them divide by 2a
x = -(1)+/-√(1)² - (4)(1)(-1.75) all of them divide by 2(1)
x= -1+/-√8 all of them divide by 2
x = -1/2 + √2 or x = -1/2 - √2

The correct option is option C

I hope that helps!

To make 4.5 cups of fruity granola, the recipe calls for 1.5 cups of raisins, 1 cup of granola, and 2 cups of blueberries. If yo

Levart [38]

Answer:

you need 6 cups of raisins, 4 cups of granola and 8 cups of blueberries.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find how much raisins are needed

For 4.5 cups of fruity granola, we need 1.5 cups of raisins

For 18 cups of fruity granola, we need y cups of raisins

4.5 : 1.5

18 : y

Cross multiply

4.5y = 1.5 x 18

y = 27/4.5

y = 6 cups of raisins

Step 2: Find how much granola is needed

For 4.5 cups of fruity granola, we need 1 cup of granola

For 18 cups of fruity granola, we need y cups of granola

4.5 : 1

18 : y

Cross multiply

4.5y = 18

y = 4 cups of granola

Step 3: Find how much blueberries are needed

For 4.5 cups of fruity granola, we need 2 cups of raisins

For 18 cups of fruity granola, we need y cups of blueberries

4.5 : 2

18 : y

Cross multiply

4.5y = 2 x 18

y = 36/4.5

y = 8 cups of blueberries

Therefore, in order to make 18 cups of fruity granola, you need 6 cups of raisins, 4 cups of granola and 8 cups of blueberries.

How much it will take for a bag to travel 5 meters across the floor of it is traveling at 1 m/s

tester [92]

Time = $\frac{distance}{speed}$

The distance the bag will travel is 5 meters, and the speed it is traveling at is 1 m/s. Plug these into the formula for time.

$\frac{5 m}{1 m/s}$ = 5 s
5/1 = 5 and the m (meters) cancel out, so you are left with s, seconds.

It will take the bag 5 seconds to travel across the floor.
