Answer:
segment EF over segment LM equals segment FG over segment MN
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar, not congruent, so any answer choice with the word "congruent" can be ignored.
The sequence of letters in the triangle name tells you the corresponding segments:
- EF corresponds to LM
- EG corresponds to LN
- FG corresponds to MN
Corresponding segments have the same ratio, so ...
EF/LM = FG/MN . . . . . . matches the first answer choice
EF/LM = EG/LN . . . . does not match the 3rd answer choice
Caution: you need to use the same units of measurement throughout. If the spring stretches by 21 cm when a 135 newton object is attached, then you must ask for the mass (in newtons) of a fish that would stretch the spring by 62.1 cm.
We will need to assume that the spring is not stretched at all if and when no object is attached to the spring.
Write the ratio
21.0 cm 135 newtons
------------- = --------------------
62.1 cm x
Solve this for x. This x value represents the mass of a fish that would stretch the spring by 62.1 cm. You can cancel "cm" in the equation above:
21.0 135 newtons
------ = --------------------
62.1 x
Then 21.0x = (62.1)(135 newtons). Divide both sides of this equation by 21.0 to solve it for x.
Answer:
<h2><u><em>
x = 5</em></u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
What is the X
3x +15 and 2x + 20
assuming that the question is an equation
3x + 15 = 2x + 20
3x - 2x = 20 - 15
x = 5
-----------------
check
3 * 5 + 15 = 2 * 5 + 20
30 = 30
the answer is good
Answer:
ΑΔΒ = ΒΔΑ because Δ stands for the difference between two numbers and the difference between two numbers doesn't change when switched to the other side.
Answer:
B 5
