The slope is 3/4 for those points
When you draw a diagonal line from Y to W, you will create two congruent triangles.
Each of these triangles will have three sides of different lengths, making them scalene triangles.
In each of these triangles, there will be one 90° angle, right angle, and two acute angles (less than 90°). This would classify these triangles as right triangles based on the angles.
Both triangles are right, scalene triangles.
Desmos helps with graphing and I highly recommend using it for future problems! Hope this helps!
Answer:
1 : 12 : 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A, G, C represent the ages of Alex, George, and Carl, respectively. We are told that ...
A = G +12
C = 3A . . . . . . . we read this as "3 times as old"; not "3 times older"
A + G + C = 68
Substituting for G and C, we have ...
A + (A -12) +(3A) = 68
5A = 80 . . . . . add 12
A = 16 . . . . . . . divide by 5
The other ages are then ...
G = A-12 = 16 -12 = 4
C = 3A = 3·16 = 48
The ratios are ...
G : C : A = 4 : 48 : 16
G : C : A = 1 : 12 : 4
