Answer:
7.06
Step-by-step explanation:
This triangle can be solved a couple of ways. In the end, they amount to the same thing.
1) The area is ...
A = 1/2bh = 1/2(8)(15) = 60 . . . using DG as the base
Using GE as the base, the height (DF) is ...
A = (1/2)(17)(DF)
2(60)/17 = DF = 120/17
DF ≈ 7.06
__
2) Using similar triangles, we can find the ratio of the long side to the hypotenuse as ...
(long side)/(hypotenuse) = DE/GE = DF/DG
DF = DG(DE/GE) = 8(15/17) = 120/17
DF ≈ 7.06
Answer:
(4,-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 6
explanation:
set up proportions
(4+2)/9 = 4/x
6/9 = 4/x
simplify
2/3 = 4/x
cross multiply
2x = 12
divide
x = 6
Answer:
4/3 per minute.
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply both 1/4 and 1/3 to get 1 minute. 1/3x4=4/3
