Leon has 4 times as much money as Andrew, and Bryanna has $250 more than Leon. If Bryanna has $300, how much does Andrew have? L

erik [133]

Answer:

$12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Bryanna has : $300

Since she has $250 more than Leon.

To get the amount that Leon has, Subtract $250 from $300. $300-$250=$50

So Leon has : $50

Leon has 4 times as much money as Andrew

To get the amount that Andrew has, Divide $50 by 4. $50÷4=$12.5

Can someone answer this question please?

The solution to the inequality $3x-3\leq -15\,\,or\,\,4x-1\geq 11$ is $x\leq -3\,\,or\,\,x\geq 4$

The number line is shown in figure attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the inequality: $3x-3\leq -15\,\,or\,\,4x-1\geq 11$

Solving the inequality:

$3x-3\leq -15\,\,or\,\,4x-1\geq 11\\Adding\,\,3\,\,on\,\,both\,\,sides\,\,and\,\,1\,\,on\,\,both\,\,sides\\3x-3+3\leq -15+3\,\,or\,\,4x-1+1\geq 11+1\\3x\leq -12\,\,or\,\,4x\geq 12$

Divide by 3 and divide by 12

$x\leq \frac{-12}{3} \,\,or\,\,x\geq \frac{12}{4} \\x\leq -4\,\,or\,\,x\geq 3$

So, value of x can be less than equal to -4 or value of x is greater than equal to 3.

The number line is shown in figure attached.

The solution to the inequality $3x-3\leq -15\,\,or\,\,4x-1\geq 11$ is $x\leq -3\,\,or\,\,x\geq 4$

Can anyone help me with these two plz

Answer:

Part 1) The scale factor is $1.5$

Part 2) The altitude QS is $4\ units$

Part 3) The scale factor is $\frac{2}{3}$

Part 4) The value of x is $12\ units$

Part 5) The perimeter of ABCDE is $46\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Find the scale factor of triangle TQR to triangle NQP

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and this ratio is called the scale factor

Let

z-----> the scale factor

$z=\frac{NP}{RT}$

substitute the values

$z=\frac{24}{16}=1.5$

Part 2) Find the length of the altitude QS

we know that

To find the altitude QS, divide the altitude of triangle NQP by the scale factor

$QS=\frac{6}{1.5}=4\ units$

Part 3) Find the scale factor of FGHJK to ABCDE

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and this ratio is called the scale factor

Let

z-----> the scale factor

$z=\frac{AB}{FG}$

substitute the values

$z=\frac{10}{15}=\frac{2}{3}$

Part 4) Find the value of x

we know that

The value of x is equal to multiply the length side FK by the scale factor

$AE=FK(z)$

substitute the values

$AE=18(2/3)=12\ units$

Part 5) Find the perimeter of ABCDE

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its perimeters is equal to the scale factor

Let

z-----> the scale factor

x-----> the perimeter of ABCDE

y-----> the perimeter of FGHJK

$z=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$z=\frac{2}{3}$

$y=15+9+12+15+18=69\ units$

substitute the values

$z=\frac{x}{y}$

$x=(z)(y)=\frac{2}{3}(69)=46\ units$
