Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure shows two similar triangles. Thus, the side lengths of similar triangles are proportional to each other. Therefore:

$\frac{24}{24 - 15} = \frac{x}{x - 25}$

$\frac{24}{9} = \frac{x}{x - 25}$

Cross multiply

$24(x - 25) = 9(x)$

$24x - 600 = 9x$

Subtract 24x from each side

$- 600 = 9x - 24x$

$- 600 = -15x$

Divide both sides by -15

$40 = x$

x = 40

The table below represents an exponential function what is the common ratio

Greeley [361]

Solution:

Given:

A table representing an exponential function.

The x-values represent the terms, while the y-values represent the numbers.

The common ratio is gotten from the numbers (y-values).

The formula for common ratio is given by;

$\begin{gathered} r=\frac{present\text{ term}}{preceed\text{ ing term}} \\ \\ \text{Hence,} \\ r=\frac{108}{36}=\frac{36}{12}=\frac{12}{4}=\frac{4}{1.33\ldots}=\frac{1.33\ldots.}{0.44\ldots} \\ r=3 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the common ratio is 3.

At a local track meet, RCMS won 3 blue ribbons than red ribbons. They also won 7 more yellow ribbons than red ribbons. RCMS won

erma4kov [3.2K]

Let no red ribbons=x
no. Of blue ribbons=x+3
No. Of yellow ribb9ns=x+7
Totsl ribbons=28
28=x+x+3+x+7
28=3x+10
3x=28-10
3x=18
X=18/3
X=6

No .of red ribbons=6
No. Of blue ribbons=x+3=9
No. Of yellow ribbons=x+7=13

find the factors of each number. Write the common factor ( CF ) and then state the greatest common factor ( GCF) .

Reptile [31]

Given:

Two numbers are 12 and 21

To find:

The factors of 12 and 21, then find the common factor and the greatest common factor.

Solution:

Two numbers are 12 and 21. The prime factors of these two numbers are

$12=2\times 2\times 3$

$21=3\times 7$

From the above factorization, it is clear that the factor 3 is common in both. So,

Common factor (CF) = 3

Only 3 is common in factorization of both. So,

Greatest common factor (GCF) = 3

Therefore, the common factor is 3 and the greatest common factor is also 3.
