Two similar triangles have corresponding sides measuring 3 cm and 7 cm determine the ratio of their respective areas

If two similar triangles have side lengths 3cm and 7cm then we can determine that the scale factor for the lengths is: 7/3

Now, we have to work out the area scale factor !

This is simple, since area is given in cm² then all we have to do is square our original scale factor!

So,

7/3² = 49/9

So, we can say that the ratio of the area would be:

x : 49/9x

Hope this helps! <3

Answer: $\Large\boxed{(-4,~-3)~\text{and}~(-2,~1)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given the system of equation</u>

$1)~y=-(x+2)^2+1$

$2)~y=2x+5$

<u>Expand the parenthesis of the 1) equation</u>

$y=-(x+2)^2+1$

$y=-(x^2+4x+4)+1$

$y=-x^2-4x-4+1$

$y=-x^2-4x-3$

<u>Current System</u>

$1)~y=-x^2-4x-3$

$2)~y=2x+5$

<u>Substitute the y value of the 1) equation with the 2) equation</u>

$2x+5=-x^2-4x-3$

<u>Add ( x² + 4x + 3) on both sides</u>

$2x+5+(x^2+4x+3)=-x^2-4x-3+(x^2+4x+3)$

$2x+5+x^2+4x+3=0$

<u>Combine like terms</u>

$x^2+2x+4x+5+3=0$

$x^2+6x+8=0$

<u>Factorize the quadratic equation</u>

$(x+4)(x+2)=0$

$x=-4~\text{or}~x=-2$

<u>Substitute the x values into one of the equations to find the y value</u>

$y=2x+5$

$y=2(-4)+5=-8+5=-3$

$y=2(-2)+5=-4+5=1$

<u>Therefore, the two solutions are:</u>

$\Large\boxed{(-4,~-3)~\text{and}~(-2,~1)}$

Hope this helps!! :)

PLS HELP ME WITH Question 4

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

7.5 min/ mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the time taken in minutes by the distance in miles

3 hours = 3 × 60 = 180 mins

3 hours 15 min = 180 + 15 = 195 mins

Average time = $\frac{195}{26}$ = 7.5 min/ mile
