Step-by-step explanation:
from what I can see there are 2 options to make the 2 triangles congruent :
either the opposite sides must be equal or the neighboring sides must be equal.
so, either
5x = 3x + 10
and
5x - 2 = 4x + 3
or
5x = 4x + 3
and
5x - 2 = 3x + 10
for the first
5x = 3x + 10
2x = 10
x = 5
control
5x - 2 = 4w + 3
5×5 - 2 = 4×5 + 3
23 = 23
correct.
for the second
5x = 4x + 3
x = 3
control
5×3 - 2 = 3×3 + 10
15 - 2 = 9 + 10
13 = 19
no, not a valid solution.
so, x = 5
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
4 flavors
2 toppings
2 containers
4x 2= 8
8x2=16
Using the formula for the area of a triangle we can solve for the base.
The formula for area of a triangle is : Area = 1/2 x base x height
We are given the area and the height:
33.6 = 1/2 x 4 x base
Multiply both sides by 2 to remove the 1/2:
67.2 = 4 x base
Divide both sides by 4 to solve for the base:
67.2 /4 = 16.8
Check: Area = 1/2 x 4 x 16.8 = 33.6
The base is 16.8 inches.
X = 12
18/24 = .75
16 x .75 = 12
Because we're given two points on the line, we can apply the slope formula to find the answer:
-4 - 8 / 2 - (-1)
-12 / 3
-4
<h3>The slope of the line is -4.</h3>
