Answer:

a = 30

b = 40

C

Step-by-step explanation:

This requires that you use a proportion.

a / (a + 15) = 40 / 60

The small triangle's sides are in proportion to the large triangles sides.

Reduce the right. Divide top and bottom by 20

a/(a + 15) = 40/20 // 60/20

a/(a + 15) = 2/3                    

Cross multiply

3a = 2(a + 15)            Remove the brackets on the right.

3a = 2a + 30

Subtract 2a from both sides

3a-2a = 30

a = 30

Find B

b is done exactly the same way.

b/(b+20) = 2/3

3b = 2b + 40

3b - 2b = 40

b = 40

What is the probality of rolling a sum of 5 if two regular 6 -sides number cubes are rolled
Dmitry [639]

Each die has six numbers, the total number of possible combinations is 6 * 6 = 36


The combinations in which you can get a sum of 5 are:  1 &4, 2 & 3, 4 &1, 3 &2

There are 4 different combinations of getting a sum of 5.


The probability would be 4/36, which reduces to 1/9

F(x) ≥ -(x+4)^2<br>axis of symmetry: <br>vertex:
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

so the vertex is (-4, 0) and the axis of symmetry is x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) ≥ -(x+4)^2

f(x) ≥ -(x- -4)^2

this is in the form

f(x)> a(x-h)^2 +k

where (h,k) is the vertex and h is the axis of symmetry

so the vertex is (-4, 0) and the axis of symmetry is x=-4
