Corresponding sides in the triangles MOP and MNQ are

MO and MN,

OP and NQ,

PM and QM.

Ratios of the corresponding sides for similar triangles should be the same.

MQ/MP =MN/MO

MQ/(MQ+QP) = MN/(MN+NO)

5/(5+x) = 6/(6+18/5)

5*(6+18/5)=6(5+x)

30+18 = 30 +6x

18=6x

x=3 =QP

Solve 31-X + (2 x + 1)] = x - 1.
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

x = X + 33 (I am guessing "x" and "X" are not the same. "x" is a variable and "X" is a constant.)

Step-by-step explanation:

31 - X + (2x+1) = x - 1

or, 2x+1 = x - 1 - 31 + X

or, 2x - x = -1 -31 + X -1

or, x = -2 -31 + X

or, x = X - 33

A candy store sells 7 packs of bubble gum for $29.33. How much would it cost to buy 3 packs?
alexira [117]

Hi there,

Recall how 7 packs for gum sell for $29.33.

Before we can calculate how much it would cost to sell 3 packs of gum, we must calculate how much it would first cost to sell 1 pack of gum.

The cost of 1 pack of gum is the current total cost divided by the total amount of gum packs you receive at that price.

In this case, the total cost is $29.33, and we receive 7 gum packs at that price.

Therefore, the cost of 1 pack of gum is \frac{29.33}{7}, which equates to $4.19.

We now know that each pack of gum costs $4.19.

Hence, 3 packs of gum would cost three times that price.

4.19 * 3 = 12.57

The cost of 3 packs of gum is $12.57.

Hope that helps!
