Mathematics
1 answer:
allsm [11]3 years ago

Answer:

Option B x=6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem

Triangles ABC and DEF are similar

therefore

∠A≅∠D

∠B≅∠E

∠C≅∠F

and

AB/DE=BC/EF=AC/DF

Find the value of x

AB/DE=BC/EF

substitute the given values

x/3=16/8

x=3*16/8

x=6 units

THE GREATEST PRODUCT
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

<em>7*6543=45801</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the digits 34567 and must arrange them into a product with the largest possible value.

It's clear that we must place the largest digits to the left, so they represent larger numbers to multiply.

Let's try with:

7654*3=22962

765*43=32895

76*543=41268

7*6543=45801

This last combination definitely produces the largest product

Answer: 7*6543=45801

9x2 − 16x + 60 = 0
Anton [14]
A. that is b^2-4ac
for
ax^2+bx+c
the deterimant (part under the radicand)
is b^2-4ac
if it is
1. less than 0 then there are no real solutions
2. eqal to 0 then there is 1 real solution
3. greater than 0, there are 2 real roots
9x^2-16x+60
b^2-4ac=(-16)^2-4*9*60=256-2160<0
no real solutions




B. grouping
ac method
4 times -5=-20
what 2 numbers multiply to get -20 and add to get 8?
-2 and 10
seperate the middle number to get that
4x^2-2x+10x-5=0
(4x^2-2x)+(10x-5)=0
2x(2x-1)+2(2x-1)=0
(2x-1)(2x+2)=0
set equal to 0

2x-1=0
2x=1
x=1/2

2x+2=0
2x=-2
x=-1

x=1/2 or -1

WILL GIVE EXTRA POINTS<br>assignment name: transformations​
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

K(1,0), L(2, 3), M(-1, 4), N(-2,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the points are being flipped over the x-axis the y values remain the same, but the x values are multiplied by -1. Multiplying the values by -1 will switch a negative value positive and a positive value negative. This will correctly flip the points to the opposite side of the graph.
