Answer:

Country ​A = 84

Country​ B = 28

Country C = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Country ​A, Country​ B, and Country C won a total of 130 medals;

A + B + C = 130 ......1

Country B won 10 more medals than Country C;

B = C + 10 .......2

Country A won 38 more medals than the total amount won by the other two;

A = B + C + 38 ........3

Substituting equation 3 to 1;

(B+C+38) + B+C = 130

2B + 2C + 38 = 130 .......4

Substituting equation 2 into 4;

2(C+10) + 2C + 38 = 130

4C + 58 = 130

4C = 130-58 = 72

C = 72/4 = 18

B = C + 10 = 18 + 10 = 28

A = B + C + 38 = 18 + 28 + 38 = 84

Country ​A = 84

Country​ B = 28

Country C = 18

HELP DUE IN 15 MINS! In ΔABC, AB = 6 in, BC = 11 in, AC = 9 in. In ΔXYZ, XZ = 38.5 in, XY = 31.5 in, and YZ = 21 in.
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

<u>Let's verify is the corresponding sides have same ratio:</u>

  • ΔABC, sides: 6, 9, 11
  • ΔXYZ, sides: 21, 31.5, 38.5

<u>Ratios:</u>

  • 6/21 = 2/7  (divide by 3)
  • 9/31.5 = 2/ 7 (divide by 4.5)
  • 11/38.5  = 2/7 (divide by 5.5)

The ratios are same, so the triangles <u>are similar</u>

  • Yes, the sides are all proportional

The scale factor (ΔABC to ΔXYZ) is <u>2/7</u> (or ΔXYZ to ΔABC is 7/2 = <u>3.5</u>)

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

The holiday party will cost $800 if 40 people attend.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find how much it costs per person.

160/8=20

We know it costs $20 per person so we can calculate how much it costs for 40 people.

40x20=800
