<h3>Answer: Choice B) 8.57</h3>
==================================================
Explanation:
The triangles are similar through the AA (angle angle) similarity rule. Note how the angle markers correspond and match up. Example: angle C and angle F both have triple angle markers to indicate these angles are congruent.
The corresponding sides pair up to form equal fractions. AB and DE form AB/DE which is equal to AC/DF, as these two sides correspond as well.
Therefore: AB/DE = AC/DF
Let's plug in the given values and isolate x
AB/DE = AC/DF
11/7 = (15+x)/15 ...... substitution
11*15 = 7*(15+x) ....... cross multiply
11*15 = 7*15+7*x ...... distribute
165 = 105+7x
165-105 = 105+7x-105 ..... subtract 105 from both sides
60 = 7x
7x = 60
7x/7 = 60/7 ............ divide both sides by 7
x = 8.57142857142858
x = 8.57 ..... rounding to the nearest hundredth
Answer:
14.87 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The sides of all right triangles share the same relationship known as the Pythagorean Theorem a² + b² = c². Substitute the lengths of the triangle into the theorem and solve for the unknown side. Since the problem does have an attached a picture, assume that a = 10, b = 11, and c = x.
10² + 11² = x²
100 + 121 = 221²
221 = x²
√221 = √x²
14.87 = x
Answer:
this is just a guess but 81
Step-by-step explanation:
I hope it is right, but I just did quick math.
so it might also be 82 if you round up to the nearest number. (sorry if this is confusing)
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
only 2 students were asked the question, 2 students don't represent the whole population
Green Line:
This is a horizontal line at x = 0, so it would be:
x ? 0
Since the shaded area is going to the left of 0 (this means x is negative):
x ≤ 0
Blue Line:
The shaded area is below the line, so:
y ≤ mx + b
When x = 0, y is -5.
y ≤ mx - 5
From each point, you go up 3 units, and to the right 4 units, so the slope is 
.
