4:12=1:3
7:21=1:3
18:54=1:3
ratios corresponding edges are the same (scale factor is the same) so these 2 figures are similar,
Answer yes, 1:3

Yes they are similar and their scale factor is 1:3

7 * 3 = 21
4 * 3 = 12
18 * 3 = 54

3 / m + 4 - 4 / m = 6 (i) Show that this equation can be written as 6m^2 + 25m+16= 0

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Proved Below

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf \frac{3}{m+4} - \frac{4}{m} = 6\\LCM = m(m+4)\\Multiplying \ both \ sides \ by\ m(m+4)\\3m - 4(m+4) = 6m(m+4)\\3m-4m-16 = 6m^2+24m\\-m-16 = 6m^2+24m\\Adding\ m\ to\ both\ sides\\-16 = 6m^2+24m+m\\-16 = 6m^2+25m\\Adding \ 16 \ to \ both \ sides\\0 = 6m^2+25m+16\\OR\\6m^2+25m+16 = 0$

Hence, Proved that $\sf \frac{3}{m+4} - \frac{4}{m} = 6$ is equivalent to $\sf 6m^2+25m+16 = 0$ .

How to find x please help

o-na [289]

You know the adjacent and you need to find the opposite, so you would use tangent. Your equation would look like this; tan 26°= x/28. You would need to multiply both sides by 28 to simplify it to this; 28*tan 26°= x
Solving this, you would get an answer of 13.7
