Congruent to angle 1: 3, 5, 10, 8, and 6
congruent to angle 2: 4, 9, and 7
If both triangles are congruent (that's what the sign means), then AD=CB, and CD=AB. Substituting what we are given into CD=AB,
6x-5=3x+10
Solving the equation:
3x=15
x=5
So we know that 2x+4 (the value of AD) becomes 2*5 +4, and you get 14. Since we know that AD=CB, then CB is also 14. No need to find y!
Answer: CB=14
Answer:
So average of a set of values is the sum of given values divided by the number of values
So, in this case the given values are 12, 9 , 4 , 8 ,7 and x (letting the 6th friend's time be x)
so the average will be:
(12 + 9 + 4 + 8 + 7 + x)/6 = 9
40 + x = 54
x = 54 - 40
x = 14 hours
Answer: E. 40
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Concept: </u>
- When you encounter questions that state "what percent of [a] is [b]" then it means asking for a fraction of b to a, which is "(b/a)×100%".
- If you are still confused, I would provide some examples
- What percent of 20 is 5: (5/20)×100% = 25%
- What percent of 10 is 2: (2/10)×100% = 20%
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
<u>Solve:</u>
(16/40)×100% = 0.4 × 100% = 40%
Hope this helps!! :)
