Answer:

c. Change the length of side CB to 8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

If the figures are similar, the ratios should be the same

Take the side of the larger triangle over the same side of the smaller


PR                PQ                     RQ

----------- = --------------------= ----------------

AC                AB                      CB


7.5                5                       10

----------- = --------------------= ----------------

 6                4                        9

7.5 /6 = 1.25

5/4 = 1.25

10/9 =1.1111(repeating)


The bases are not in the right ratio.  RQ over CB = 1.25.  Since RQ = 10  and the ratio is 1.25, we can solve for CB

10/CB = 1.25

Multiply by CB on each side

10 = 1.25CB

Divide by 1.25 on each side

10/1.25 = CB

8 =CB

The sum of a number and its reciprocal is 2whole number 1 over 6. Find that number​
notsponge [240]

Answer:

  2/3 or 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number. The given relation is ...

  x +1/x = 2 1/6

  x^2 +1 = (13/6)x

  6x^2 -13x +6 = 0 . . . . . subtract the right side and multiply by 6

  (6x -9)(6x -4)/6 = 0 . . . . factor

  (2x -3)(3x -2) = 0 . . . . . . simplify a bit

  x = 3/2  or  2/3 . . . . . . . . values of x that make the factors zero

The number is 2/3 or its reciprocal, 3/2.
