Ok so u wanna do the equation regularly and then u want to divide the top and bottom by 2 as much as u can but when u can’t divide one by 2 you can’t divide the other one either that’s when u stop
Wouldn't 4/5 be a fraction because 4/5 is not a whole number. its a part not a whole so its a fraction
Answer:
3. PR=51
4. FE=28
Step-by-step explanation:
3. since the two triangles are similar, set up a proportion:
x+8/3x-9=24/28
*cross multiply*:
28(x+8)=24(3x-9)
28x+224=72x-216
44x=440
x=20
to find PR:
PR=3x-9
PR=3(20)-9
PR=51
4. same here:
39/4x+2=42/5x-2
39(5x-2)=42(4x+2)
195x-78=168x+84
27x=162
x=6
to find FE:
FE=5x-2
FE=5(6)-2
FE=28
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since triangles ABC and ADE are similar by AA (they share angle A and a right angle), their ratio of sides must be equal. Therefore:
Multiply both sides by 2:
Multiply both sides by x+2:
Subtract 2 from both sides:
Hope this helps!
Answer:
y + 7 = -(x - 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
point slope is written in the form y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
substitute -1 for m, 7 for x₁ and -7 for y₁
