Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, you need to use the Thales theorem.

You can actually apply this theorem and choose two sides of the figure to do it.

In this case, I will choose segment LM and MN and look for a ratio with DE and EF like this:

LM/MN = DE/EF

This theorem states that you can stablish a ratio between two segments assuming that you have at least two paralels lines, like DL || EM || FN

Therefore, it's time to replace the values of those segments and solve for X:

LM/MN = DE/EF

14/16 = 6x -9 / 4x + 4

7/8 = 6x - 9 / 4x + 4

7(4x+4) = 8(6x-9)

28x + 28 = 48x - 72

72 + 28 = 48x - 28x

100 = 20x

x = 100/20

x = 5

Which restaurant has the greater rate of change?<br><br> A) Juice Jammers<br> B) Bob's Burgers
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The answer is Juice Jammers

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which has a greater rate of change calculate out the rate of change for Juice Jammers. In order to do so, we use the first two points in the table and the slope equation.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (29.25 - 0)/(25 - 0)

m = 29.25/25

m = 1.17

This gives Juice Jammers a higher rate of change than Bob's Burgers

A mom is 7 times older than her daughter. In five years,she will be 4 times older than her daughter. Find there ages now. I am t
sammy [17]

Answer:

Mom === 10.25

Daughter === 3.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s the mom age be 7+x and the daughters age be x. Put it in a linear equation 7+x=5(4+x).

open the bracket which will give you 7+x=20+5x.

collect like terms which will give you 5x-x=20–7 and you will get 4x=13 where x is 3.25 the mom is 10.25 and the daughters age is 3.25
