Answer:

X=10

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles are similar since each triangle is the same shape of right triangle but different sizes. To find x, write a proportion between two equal ratios of side lengths.

Solve by cross multiplying.

28(3x) = 20(4x+2)

84x = 80x + 40

4x = 40

x=10

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles are similar since each triangle is the same shape of right triangle but different sizes. To find x, write a proportion between two equal ratios of side lengths.

\frac{28}{20}=\frac{4x+2}{3x}

Solve by cross multiplying.

28(3x) = 20(4x+2)

84x = 80x + 40

4x = 40

x=10

Karen says every equilateral triangle isacute. Is it true? Explain. Sorry I just don't know
NISA [10]
No problem, that's why Brainly exists! :) Karen is right, as every equilateral triangle has equal angles. The angles in every triangle must add up to 180°, and if all the angles are equal in an equilateral triangle, that must mean each angle is 60°. (180 ÷ 3 (because three sides in a triangle) = 60). Anything under 90° is acute, that means Karen is right because 60 < 90, and is therefore acute.

Gina spins a penny 100 times and it lands head side up 38 times. Explain why Gina's experimental probability may be different fr
alekssr [168]
Theoretical probability is what u expect to happen...although it might not happen that way. The theoretical probability of spinning a coin 100 times and it landing on heads is 50%...and 50% of 100 = 50....so  would expect it to and on heads 50 times.
The experimental probability is what actually happens...the experimental probability when spinning a coin 100 times and it landing on heads 38 of those times = 38/100 = 0.38 = 38%

If the order of three loci is A B C, and the map distance between A and B is 15 m.u., and the map distance between B and C is 20
zysi [14]

Answer:

Therefore, we conclute that the map distance between A and C is 35 m.u..

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the order of three loci is A B C, and the map distance between A and B is 15 m.u., and the map distance between B and C is 20 m.u. We calculate the map distance between A and C.

Therefore, we get

AC=AB+BC\\\\AC=15+20\\\\AC=35\\

Therefore, we conclute that the map distance between A and C is 35 m.u..
