Answer: the eastbound train had travelled 12 miles
Explanation: using Pythagoras theorem, we know that
X^2 = a^2 + b^2
Where ^ stands for raised to power.
Let
a stand for the train going towards North and
b stands for the train going towards east.
X stands for the total distance between train a and b = 20 miles.
By Pythagoras rule
X^2 = a^2 + b^2
20^2 = 16^2 + b^2
400 = 256 + b^2 so that
b^2 = 400 - 256 = 144
b = √144
b = 12 miles.
For this case by similarity of triangles we can use the following relationship:
(x) / (9) = (5) / (15)
We clear the value of x:
x = ((5) / (15)) * (9)
Rewriting:
x = (1/3) * (9)
x = 3
Answer:
The value of x for this case is:
x = 3
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
because since there is no negative sign in front of the 3x we automatially know there is no reflection so that rules out answers A and B. Then, since 3 is greater than 1 we can determine that it is a stretch which would rule out answer C so the answer is D
I did this manually on some notepaper but my scanner is not working.
The answer is 72 cm^2
