PLZ HELP ASAP SIMMILAR AND CONGRUENT TRIANGLES

LA=3.5; AY=7
LW=?

LW=LA+AW
AW=?

Let's analyze triangles LAY and YAW
1) Triangle LAY
Angle LAY is 90°
Suppose Angle ALY is x
The angle LYA is the complement of x, for example y:
x+y=90°→y=90°-x

2) Triangle YAW
Angle AYW is the complement of angle LAY (y), then the angle AYW must be equal to x.
Angle YAW is 90°, because the angle LAY is 90°

The triangles LAY and YAW are similars, because they have to congruent angles:
Angle LAY = 90° = Angle YAW
Angle ALY = x = Angle AYW
Then the sides of triangles LAY and YAW must be proportionals:
AW/AY=AY/LA
Replacing the known values:
AW/7=7/3.5
AW/7=2
Solving for AW. Multiplying both sides of the equation by 7:
7(AW/7)=7(2)
AW=14

Now:
LW=LA+AW
LW=3.5+14
LW=17.5

Answer: LW=17.5 units

In a volleyball game, Caroline served the ball over the net 16 out of 20 times. What percent did she not make her serve over the
brilliants [131]

16/20. We reduce that and get 4/5.

After this it's much simpler to chage it.

100 dividied by 5 is 20. (20,40,60,80,100)

So the 4th number (4/100)

is 80. 80%.

20% she didn't and 80% she did :) (100-80)

They are vertical angles. They are congruent. 

(2x+2)= (3x-52)

Add 52 to the other side. 

2x+54=3x

Subtract 2x on both sides.

54=x

I hope this helps!

PLEASE HELP 7TH GRADE 100 PTS!!!
MariettaO [177]

f(x) = 5x is linear. Just a straight line with a slope of +5. So if the intervals are both a difference of 1, then the average rate of change will be the same.

f(x2) - f(x1) over x2 - x1. That's the formula for average rate of change.

So for Section A:

f(x) = 5x, (0,1)

[f(1) - f(0)]/(1-0)

= [5(1) - 5(0)]/1

=(5)/1

=5

Do the same for section B and you'll get 5 as well.

I hope this helps you because I have no clue if my answer is right
