Answer:
x=28
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use similar triangles and proportions to solve this problem. Put the side of the small triangle over the same side of the larger triangle.
x 42
---------- = ----------
x+10 42+15
Simplify
x 42
---------- = ----------
x+10 57
Using cross products
57x = 42 (x+10)
Distribute
57x = 42x+420
Subtract 42x from each side
57x-42x = 42x-42x +420
15x = 420
Divide each side by 15
15x/15 = 420/15
x=28
Step-by-step explanation:
1. yes 4+16 = 20
2. yes 32 - 4 = 28
3. yes 4(10) = 40
4. no 24/6 = 4

Answer:
Roy is 10 years old at present and Joan is 5 years old at present
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x----> Roy's age
y----> Joan's age
we know that
x=2y ----> equation A
(x+3)+(y+3)=21 ----> equation B
substitute equation A in equation B
(2y+3)+(y+3)=21
solve for y
3y+6=21
3y=21-6
3y=15
y=5 years
Find the value of x
x=2y ----> x=2(5)=10 years
therefore
Roy is 10 years old at present
Joan is 5 years old at present
Answer:
- 3.5
- 2
- B
- A
Step-by-step explanation:
Middle School:
Find the median by arranging the data points from smallest to largest.
1, 1, 1, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6 (Take the average of the two points in the middle, 3 and 4)
7/2 = 3.5
High School:
1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4 (Take the average of the two points in the middle, 2 and 2)
4/2 = 2
Most of the points in the middle school plot are four or less.
A (High school students had more variation.)
