If 2 triangles are similar, the ratio of one side of the triangle to the corresponding side of the other is always same for all 3 sides.
We can make use of this rule to calculate the length of sides.
From the image,
3 / 15 = 6 / x
Simplify,
1 / 5 = 6 / x
Use cross method to solve this.
5 x 6 = 1 x x
X = 30
Therefore the length of x is 30ft., A.
Answer:
it would be on y-4.
and there is no x coordinate because it's 0
Let x be the no. of seconds it takes for the balloons to be at the same height.
7+3x = 12+2x
Deduct both sides by 2x.
7+x = 12
Deduct both sides by 7.
x = 5
Ans: It will take 5 seconds for the balloons to be at the same height.
Answer:
a+4b-24
Step-by-step explanation:
4(1/4a+b−6)
=(4)(1/4a+b+−6)
=(4)(1/4a)+(4)(b)+(4)(−6)
=a+4b−24
