Answer:
x = - 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 
x = 8 ( multiply both sides by 5 to clear the fraction )
- 4x = 40 ( divide both sides by - 4 )
x = - 10
Consider ∆JWZ and ∆JKZ
WZ~KJ (given)
<u>/</u><u> </u><u>WZJ</u>~<u>/</u><u> </u>KJZ (given)
JZ~JZ (common)
Therefore,
∆JWZ~∆JKZ by SAS congruence rule.
JW~ZK by CPCT.
<h3>Solution(s):</h3>
<u>1)</u><u> What distance did a car travel that went 70 mph for 6 hours?</u>
Given:
<u>Multiply the RHS by 6 to see what distance was covered by the car in 6 hours.</u>
- 70 miles = 1 hour
- => 70 x 6 miles = 6 hours
- => 420 miles = 6 hours
The car traveled 420 miles in 6 hours.
<u>2)</u><u> What is the perimeter of a rectangle with a length of 7 cm and a width of 4 cm?</u>
Given:
- Length: 7 cm
- Breadth: 4 cm
Formula to find perimeter: 2(L) + 2(B)
<u>Substitute the values into the formula to find the perimeter.</u>
- 2(L) + 2(B)
- => 2(7) + 2(4)
- => 14 + 8
- => 22 cm
The perimeter of the rectangle is 22 cm.
