Check the picture below.
running a perpendicular line like so from the right-angle, makes three similar triangles, the large, containing the smaller ones, and a medium and a small one. Now, using proportions, you can just use there, the medium and smalle to get "x".
It increases the mean value of the prizes.
Approximate solutions are
X subset 2 is approximately equal to -2.72
X subset 1 is approximately equal to -0.28
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔABC is congruent with ΔDEF. That means the corresponding sides are congruent.
Look at the order of the letters. EF are the last two letters of ΔDEF. So this corresponds with the last two letters of ΔABC. Therefore, EF ≅ BC.
EF ≅ BC
x² + 8x = 48
x² + 8x − 48 = 0
(x + 12) (x − 4) = 0
x = -12 or 4
Since x can't be negative, x = 4.
Answer: 54.4 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the distance to the train station. If it took Carlos 4 hours to come back driving at 68 mph, the distance is:
= Speed * time
= 68 * 4
= 272 miles
This means that Carlos drove for 5 hours to cover 272 miles the first time. His average speed was therefore:
= Distance / time
= 272/5
= 54.4 mph
