S equals 14. First, you need to do a distributive property for negative sign inside the parenthesis. Combine like terms, add 8 to the both sides and divide by 2.
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 12 from both sides:
y + 15 - 15 < 3 - 15
Simplify:
y < -12
Answer: 6.75 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, the ratio of the side of the similar triangle = 2 : 3
Thus, by the property of similar triangle,
The ratio of the altitudes of the triangle = 2 : 3
Let the altitude of smaller triangle = 2 x
And, the altitude of larger triangle = 3 x
Where x is any number.
According to the question,
2 x = 4.5
x = 2.25
Therefore, the altitude of larger triangle = 3 × 2.25 = 6.75 feet
