Answer:
16/24
Step-by-step explanation:
9/12–> simplify to 3/4
3/4=15/20
24/32=3/4
6/8=3/4
16/24 is not equal
The least common multiple is 2. 2 is the highest number that goes in to each of these numbers.
The diagram tells us 3 things: the right angle and the two corresponding side measurements. Because the side measurements are corresponding, we can set a proportion:
6/9=9/15
If this proportion is true, it means the triangles are similar. If this proportion is impossible, it means the triangles are no similar.
To calculate this, we use cross multiplication.
6/9=9/15
6*15=9*9
90=81
90 does not equal 81 making this proportion impossible, which concludes that these two triangles are not similar.
I hope this helps! Please comment if you have any questions.
The answer is D . Because 20+20=40 10+10=20 so 40+20=60
If you would like to solve the system of equations, you can do this using the following steps:
2x + 3y = 40
-2x + 2y = 20
____________
2x + 3y - 2x + 2y = 40 + 20
5y = 60 /5
y = 60/5
y = 12
<span>2x + 3y = 40
</span>2x + 3 * 12 = 40
2x + 36 = 40
2x = 40 - 36
2x = 4
x = 4/2
x = 2
(x, y) = (2, 12)
The correct result would be <span>d. x = 2, y = 12.</span>
