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

Last year there were 1,435 8thgrade students enrolled at your school. This year there are 1,220. What is the percent change in t
julsineya [31]

Hi there!

Answer:

-14.98%(or -15%).

Step-by-step explanation:

1)To find the percent decrease,all you have to do is minus the original number from the decreased amount so:

1435-1220= 215

2)Then you divide this answer by the original number again so:

215÷1435= 0.1498

3)Then you times the decimal by 100 so:

0.1489x100= -14.98%(or -15%).

Hope this helps!

The volume of a gas "V" varies inversely with the pressure "P" put on it. If the volume is 360cm³ under a pressure of 20 kgcm2
Sav [38]

Answer:

15 Kg cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that V varies inversely with P then the equation relating them is

V = \frac{k}{P} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition

V = 360, P = 20, then

360 = \frac{k}{20} ( multiply both sides by 20 )

k = 7200

V = \frac{7200}{P} ← equation of variation

When V = 480, then

480 = \frac{7200}{P} ( multiply both sides by P )

480P = 7200 ( divide both sides by 480 )

P = 15
