Answer:
a) 16.25 centimeters
b) 6.8 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a proportion for both of these problems.
a) Look at the longest side of each triangle. We can set up a fraction: 7.2/18. We can also set up a fraction for XZ and PR:
6.5/x
x represents the length you're trying to find.
Since the triangles are similar, we have an equation:
7.2/18=6.5/x
Cross multiply
16.25
XZ is 16.25 centimeters long.
b)
We can do same thing:
7.2/18=x/17
Cross multiply
6.8
QR is 6.8 centimeters long.
Hope this helps!
Since in this equation we are dividing 17/2 by 1/4, we can think of this as multiplying 17/2 with 4/1 (or 4).
17 4
---- X ----- = 34
2 1
Our final answer is 34 days.
6(2x-8y=-24)
-2 (6x+4y=68)
12x-48y=-144
-12x-8y=-136
-56y=-280
-280÷-56=5
y=5
2x-8 (5)=-24
2x-40=-24
+40. +40
2x=16
16÷2=8
×=8
y=5
x=8

3 dumplings can be made by Serenity
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Serenity has 
cups of dough to make dumplings
She uses 
cup of dough for each dumpling
To find: Number of whole dumplings made
From given information,
To find the number of whole dumplings made, we can divide the total cups of dough by cups of dough for 1 dumpling

Answer:
$(400+80x)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are required to find the total income on Friday Night
Ticket costs $5 each and they sold 80 tickets
Total ticket Sales = 80 X $5 =$400
There was a donation of $x per ticket, so for 80 tickets, there was a donation of $80x.
Total Income on Friday Night=Ticket Sale+Donations= $(400+80x)
