Answer: a) 2:1. b) 3. c) Perimeter of ΔEFG=36 Perimeter of ΔHIJ=18. d) 2:1
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Find the ratio of GF and JI. 16:8. Simplify by dividing both by 8 to get 2:1.
b) Set up this equation: 6/16=x/8. Cross-multiply. 6*8=48. Divide by 16. 48/16=3.
c) First find the length of one half of GF by dividing 16 by 2. 16/2=8. Set up the Pythagorean theorem. 8^2+6^2=c^2. Square 8 and 6. 64+36=c^2. Add 64 and 36. 100=c^2. Find the square root of 100. c=10.
EF and EG both measure 10 since they are shown to be congruent. 10+10+16=36.
Next find the length of one half of JI by dividing 8 by 2. 8/2=4. Set up the Pythagorean theorem. Since we know x=3, it will be 4^2+3^2=c^2. Square both 4 and 3. 16+9=c^2. Add 16 and 9. 25=c^2. Find the square root of 25. c=5.
HJ and HI both measure 5 since they are congruent. 5+5+8=18.
d) Find the ratio of the perimeters of ΔEFG and ΔHIJ. 36:18. Simplify by dividing both by 6 to get 6:3. Simplify further by dividing both by 3 to get 2:1.
Answer:
D: x < 20
Step-by-step explanation:
-4x + 16 > -64
subtract 16 from both sides because you must isolate x.
-4x + 16 - 16 > -64 - 16
-4x > -80
Then divide -4 on both sides... I believe that when you divide a number by a negative number you must flip the sign...
-4x/ -4 < -80/ -4
x < 20
(negative divided by a negative will result in a POSITIVE.)
Hope this helped... I truly apologize if this is wrong..
To find that you first need to find what 9% is. You can multiply the number, 2,860 by .09 to find out your answer. That should be equal to 257.40. Since you now have that number, you can multiply it by 36. 257.40 is your average per month and you want to know by 3 years. So then your next step is 257.4*36 (there is 36 months in 3 years) which should be equal to 9,266.40.
by solving the first equation you'll get x= -24/13
if you solve the second option (B) then you'll the same result i.e x=-24/13
so option C is correct
