Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to pay very close attention to the triangle similarity statement.  This says that triangle NML is similar to triangle NVU.  But if you look at the way that triangle NVU is oriented in its appearance, it's laying on its side.  We need to set it upright so that angle N is the vertex angle, angle V is the base angle on the left, and angle U is the base angle on the right.  When we do that we see that sides NV and NM are corresponding and exist in a ratio to one another; likewise with sides VU and ML.  Setting up the proportion:

\frac{NV}{NM}=\frac{VU}{ML}

Filling in:

\frac{12}{36} =\frac{9}{9x}

Cross multiply to get

324 = 108x

and x = 3

I need help to solve it
Sidana [21]

Answer:

She will earn £9.01 per hour after the pay rise

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate a value, given the percentage of the pay rise

From the question, the percentage is 6%

The pay rise is thus;

8.50 + 6% of 8.50

= 8.50 + (6*8.5)/100

= 8.50 + 0.51

= £9.01

Answer:

Answers are below

Step-by-step explanation:

12) No because the scale factor is not the same between the two rectangles

13) Yes. TUV is congruent to XYZ. The scale factor is 3/4.

14) Yes. I used SAS to see whether or not the triangles were similar. PQR is congruent to UVW.

15) Yes. I used 14) Yes. I used SAS to see whether or not the triangles were similar. DGH is congruent to FEH.

HELP ME PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

y = 3/2x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

change f(x) to 'y='

interchange 'x' and 'y' then solve for 'y':

y = 2/3x - 10

x = 2/3y - 10

x+10 = 2/3y

multiply each side by 3/2 to get:

y = 3/2x + 15
