Answer:

Approximately

7.5

hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

We are trying to determine the value of

0.85

)

h

=

2000

or, simplified:

XXX

1.85

h

=

100

Taking the

log

1.85

of both sides:

D=DVDs and G=Games solve for 2D+3G=15.50 and 3D+1G=12.05

kogti [31]

We have

1G = 12.05 - 3D;

Then,

2D + 3( 12.05 - 3D) = 15.50;

2D + 36.15 - 9D = 15.50;

- 7D = - 20.65;

D = 2.95;

Finally, G = 12.05 - 3 x 2.95;

G = 3.20;

TU = 3, RS = 15, TW = 4, TR = 9; Assume that the sides of triangle TUW are proportional to the sides of triangle TRS. What is th

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

$WS=8\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal and the corresponding angles are also equal

In this problem

$\frac{TU}{TR}=\frac{UW}{RS}=\frac{TW}{TS}$

we have

$TU=3\ units, RS=15\ units, TW=4\ units,TR=9\ units$

Find the value of TS

$\frac{TU}{TR}=\frac{TW}{TS}$

substitute

$\frac{3}{9}=\frac{4}{TS}$

$TS=36/3=12\ units$

$WS=TS-TW$

$WS=12-4=8\ units$

see the attached figure to better understand the problem
