Hey there!

Answer:

CD = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar, we can set up a ratio to determine the other side-lengths:

\frac{12-x}{18} =\frac{x}{6}

Cross multiply:

6(12-x) = 18x

Distribute the '6':

72-6x = 18x

Combine like terms and simplify:

72 = 24x

x = 3

Therefore, the length of CD is 3.

PLEASE HELP!!!! <br><br><br> What are the missing angles ?
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The answer for the first picture is 84

The answer for the second picture is 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The first triangle is a isosceles triangle which means that two angle lengths must be the same. We use the only angle measurement  which is 48 and subtract it from 180 twice because there are two angles lengths that are the same, once we subtract from 180 we have 84. The same process is followed for the second triangle.

180-48-48=84

Second Triangle:

180-72-72=36

John has gross biweekly earnings of $743.61. By claiming 1 more withholding allowance, John would have $19 more in his take home
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Total withholding allowances are 39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the gross earning of John = $743.61

It is given that 1 withholding allowance = $19

Now we have to find the total number of withholding allowances. Here, the number of withholding allowances can be determined by dividing the total earnings with $19.

Number of withholding allowances = 743.61 / 19 = 39.14 or 39 (round off).

I NEED HELP I NEED TO PASS THIS

Answer:

A. the area of the large pond is 16 times the area of the small pond

Step-by-step explanation:

let's say 4 is the radius of the small circle, which means the area is 50.26548

if the large circle is 4 times the small circle, that means it's radius is 16 which means the area is 804.24772

so if you divide the big circle area by the small circle area:

804.24772/50.26548

it gives you 16.00000079577 which is rounded to 16

therefore, the bigger circle is 16 times bigger than the smaller circle
