Answer:
2/3 (B)
Step-by-step explanation:
The y values increase by 2 every time and the x values increase by 3. The rule for slope is rise(y)/run(x) so you get b, 2/3
Answer:
I believe the answer is x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>3x</em> and<em> 4x-1 </em> are corresponding sides and so are <em>14</em> and <em>18</em>.
You cross multiply with the smaller triangle lengths at the top.
3x/(4x-1)= 14/18
Cross multiply to get
18(3x)= 14(4x-1)
54x=56x-14
Subtract 54x on the other side and add 14 to the other (or subtract 56x to the other side)
you get 14=2x and divide 14 by 2 to get x=7
