Two figures are known as similar figures if there the corresponding angles are equal and the corresponding sider is in ratio. The value of x is 10. Thus, the correct option is B.
<h3>What are Similar Figures?</h3>
Two figures are known as similar figures if there the corresponding angles are equal and the corresponding sider is in ratio. It is denoted by the symbol "~".
Since the two prisms are similar, their sides will be in a common ratio. The value of the common ratio will be,
Common ratio = 4/2 = 5/2.5 = 3/1.5 = 2
Since the common ratio of every side is equal to 2, the value of x can be written as,
Common Ratio = 20/x = 2
20/x = 2
x = 10
Hence, the value of x is 10. Thus, the correct option is B.

Answer:
- 1) y = 13.5x + 1
- 2) y = 12x + 4
- 3) Sam won the race
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Part 1</h3>
Sam's car is 1 ft in front of the start line and its speed is 13.5 ft/s.
<u>The distance after x seconds is:</u>
<h3>Part 2</h3>
Alice's car the speed 12 ft/s and after 3 seconds is 40 ft in front of the start line.
<u>The distance after x seconds is:</u>
- y = 12(x - 3) + 40 = 12x - 36 + 40 = 12x + 4
<h3>Part 3</h3>
<u>After 15 seconds the distance from the start line is:</u>
- Sam ⇒ y = 13.5*15 + 1 = 203.5 ft
- Alice ⇒ y = 12*15 + 4 = 184 ft
As we see Sam is further from the start line than Alice
Answers:
- C) x = plus/minus 11
- B) No real solutions
- C) Two solutions
- A) One solution
- The value <u> 18 </u> goes in the first blank. The value <u> 17 </u> goes in the second blank.
========================================================
Explanations:
- Note how (11)^2 = (11)*(11) = 121 and also (-11)^2 = (-11)*(-11) = 121. The two negatives multiply to a positive. So that's why the solution is x = plus/minus 11. The plus minus breaks down into the two equations x = 11 or x = -11.
- There are no real solutions here because the left hand side can never be negative, no matter what real number you pick for x. As mentioned in problem 1, squaring -11 leads to a positive number 121. The same idea applies here as well.
- The two solutions are x = 0 and x = -2. We set each factor equal to zero through the zero product property. Then we solve each equation for x. The x+2 = 0 leads to x = -2.
- We use the zero product property here as well. We have a repeated factor, so we're only solving one equation and that is x-3 = 0 which leads to x = 3. The only root is x = 3.
- Apply the FOIL rule on (x+1)(x+17) to end up with x^2+17x+1x+17 which simplifies fully to x^2+18x+17. The middle x coefficient is 18, while the constant term is 17.

since the total number of stamps didn't change, the total ratio should be the same.

so this means 1 unit is 10stamps.
14-10=4
4 X 10= 40
Kaye have 40 more stamps than Alberto.
By definition of conditional probability,
P(B | A) = P(A ∩ B)/P(A) = (13/25) / (13/20) = 20/25 = 4/5
