Answer:
a) 16.25 centimeters
b) 6.8 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a proportion for both of these problems.
a) Look at the longest side of each triangle. We can set up a fraction: 7.2/18. We can also set up a fraction for XZ and PR:
6.5/x
x represents the length you're trying to find.
Since the triangles are similar, we have an equation:
7.2/18=6.5/x
Cross multiply
16.25
XZ is 16.25 centimeters long.
b)
We can do same thing:
7.2/18=x/17
Cross multiply
6.8
QR is 6.8 centimeters long.
Hope this helps!
First leave the first fraction alone.
Then turn the division sign into a multiplication sign.
Flip the second fraction over ( find its reciprocal ).
Multiply the numerators of the two fractions together. This result will be the numerator ( the top part ) of your answer.
Multiply the denominators of the two fractions together. The result will be the denominator ( the bottom part ) of your answer.
Then simplify your fraction by reducing it to the simplest terms.
Answer:
6/10
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 3/5 by any whole number ratio equal to 1 to obtain an equivalent fraction.
(2/2)*(3/5) = 6/10
or (3/3)*(2/5) = 9/15
etc.
To start off, you can divide the right side of the equation by x to get rid of most of the x's so you get the polynomial x^4 - 10x^2 + 9. This means that f(x) = x^4 - 10x^2 + 9x. By factoring the right side of the equation, you get f(x) = (x^2 - 1)(x^2 - 9). I think the minimum value is 1 and the maximum value is 3.
