Data:

<span>segment AU = 20x + 108,
segment UB = 273,
segment BC = 703,
segment UV = 444,
segment AV = 372 and
segment AC = 589.

From the figure:

1) Similarity => segment AB / segment BC = segment AU / segment UV

2) segment AB = segment AU + segment UB = 20x + 108 + 273 = 20x + 381

=> (20x + 381) / 703 = (20x + 108) / 444

=> 444 (20x + 381) = 703 (20x + 108)

=> 8880x + 169164 = 14060x + 75924

=> 14060x - 8880x = 169164 - 75924

=> 5180 x = 93240

=> x = 93240 / 5180

=> x = 18

Answer: x = 18

Hi can some please help?
Oduvanchick [21]
So I'm assuming that you're taking Calculus.
The first thing you want to do is take the integral of f(x)...
Use the power rule to get:
4X^2-13X+3.
Now solve for X when f(x)=0. This is because when the slope is 0, it is either a minimum or a maximum(I'm assuming you know this)
Now you get X=0.25 and X=3. Since we are working in the interval of (1,4), we can ignore 0.25
Thus our potential X values for max and min are X=1,X=4,X=3(You don't want to forget the ends of the bounds!)
Plugging these value in for f(x), we get
f(1)=2.833
f(3)=-8.5
f(4)=1.667
Thus X=1 is the max and X=3 is the min.
So max:(1,2.833)
min:(3,-8.5)

Hope this helps!

one batch of cookies makes 24 cookies. the recipe calls for 1 3/4 cups of flour. if Sarah needs to make 60 cookies how much flou
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

4 3/8 cups of flour needed for 60 cookies

Explanation:

You can multiply 24 by 2.5 to get 60 so you'd multiply the cups of flour by 2.5 as well. You multiply both of them by the same number because it's a ratio. You'd multiply then simplify to get the answer 4 3/8 cups of flour.
