5
Explanation:
2 - (-3) = 5
Answer:
8. m=6
9. x=2; Alyssa is incorrect because she subtracted 8 from 16 when in reality she should have divided 16 by 8 to get 2. The real solution is 2 because 8 times 2 is equal to 16.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question 8:
2m-6=m
-2m -2m (subtract 2m from both sides)
<u>-6</u>=<u>-m</u>
- - (divide both sides by the negative)
m=6
Question 9:
<u>8x</u>=<u>16 </u> (divide both sides of the equation by 8)
8 8
x=2
The ratio of the sides of the given similar triangles is: C. 4/12 = 5/15 = 1/3.
<h3>How do the Sides of Similar Triangles Relate?</h3>
The corresponding sides of similar triangles have ratios that are equal to each other.
The corresponding sides and their ratios are:
4/12 = 1/3
5/15 = 1/3
Therefore, the ratio of their sides in its lowest term is:
C. 4/12 = 5/15 = 1/3

Factors of 56 are: 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56
<span>Factors of 84 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, </span>28, 42, 84
The outside term multiplies by the outside term on the oposite side to equal the answer.
Example:
Look at the factors of 84
84X1=84
2X42=84
3X28=84
and so on!
This should be recognized as the difference of perfect squares which is of the form:
(a^2-b^2) and the difference of squares always factors to:
(a-b)(a+b) in this case:
(3x-8)(3x+8)
