Answer:
-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the ratio of the corresponding sides to get the scale factor so for this equation let's use the hypotenuse.
The length of the hypotenuse of the larger triangle is 12 units and the smaller triangle's hypotenuse is 4 so 4/12 is the scale factor.
However 4/12 can be simplified down to 1/3.
Since the smaller triangle has been flipped upside down the scale factor is negative so the final answer is -1/3
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
5(2x-5) +10x = 75
10x -25 +10x = 75
20x - 25 = 75
20x = 100
x = 5
The answer is <span>252.5 ft
</span><span>y = –0.004x</span>²<span> + x + 2.5
Let's take y = 0 and we'll get the quadratic equation:
</span>–0.004x² + x + 2.5 = 0
The general formula for quadratic equation is:
ax² + bx + c = 0
a = -0.004
b = 1
c = 2.5


Since distance cannot be negative (x1), the correct answer is x2 = 252.5 ft
