Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The top triangle is similar to the whole triangle because of AAA
Then we know that the corresponding sides are similar
9/81=(3x-20)/(3x-20+56)
1/9=(3x-20)/(3x+36)
cross multiply
9(3x-20)=3x+36
27x-180=3x+36
24x=216
x=9
Answer:
586
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2b < 56
n = b - 2
b = n + 2
n < 27
b < 28
No, because the difference between Brittany and Nate's age is 2years
Step-by-step explanation:
A.)
Twice Brittany’s age is less than the age of Abraham Lincoln when he died. President Lincoln was 56 years old at the time of his death
Let Brittany's age = b
Twice Brittany's age = 2 × b = 2b
Lincoln's age = 56
2b < 56
B.)
Nate's age = n
Nate is 2 years younger than brittany who is aged 'b'
n = b - 2
C.) b = n + 2
D.)
If 2b < 56 and b = n + 2
2(n + 2) < 56
2n + 2 < 56
2n < 56 - 2
2n < 54 ; n < 27
2b < 56
b < 56/2
b < 28
No, because the difference between Brittany and Nate's age is 2years
Answer:
9 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Side lengths of similar triangles are proportional. BC is 1.5 times the length of AC, so EF will be 1.5 times the length of DF:
1.5·6 cm = 9 cm
