X = 10
The triangles are similar by SAS, so we can set up a proportion of their sides.
9/(33-9) = 12/(3x+2)
9/24 = 12/3x+2
Reduce
3/8 = 12/3x+2
Cross multiply
3(3x+2) = 12*8
Distribute and multiply
9x + 6 = 96
Subtract 6
9x = 90
Divide by 9
x = 10
Check:
9/24 = 12/3x+2
9/24 = 12/3*10 + 2
9/24 = 12/30 + 2
9/24 = 12/32
3/8 = 3/8 :)
Answer:
Eli ate 3/4 of the pizza
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 = 2/4
2/4 + 1/4 = 3/4
Answer:

The linear function g which has a rate of change of -16 and initial value 600 is; g = -16x + 600.
<h3>What is the linear function which is as described?</h3>
It follows from the task content that the linear expression which is as described by the given verbal description is to be determined.
Since the standard slope-intercept form of a linear function is as given; f(x) = ax + b.
Where, a = slope (rate of change) and b = y-intercept (initial value).
Therefore, the required linear function which is as described is;
g = -16x + 600

X liters of 10% + (30 - x) liters of 22% = 30 liters of 15%
<span>Plugging in the numbers </span>
<span>x(10) + (30 - x)22 = 30(15) </span>
<span>Distribute </span>
<span>10x + 660 - 22x = 450 </span>
<span>Combine like terms </span>
<span>-12x = -210 </span>
<span>Divide both sides by -12 </span>
<span>x = 17.5 </span>
<span>30 - x = 12.5 </span>
<span>17.5 liters of 10% + 12.5 liters of 22% = 30 liters of 15%
THE TRICK IS TO JUST USE ONLY ONE VARIABLE</span>
