Answer:
11) x = 9
12) x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
11) Corresponding segments are proportional, so ...
x/6 = 12/8
x = 6(12)/8 . . . multiply by 6
x = 9

12) Similar triangle relationships show you the geometric mean relationship that applies in this case.
long side/short side = x/3 = 27/x
x² = 3·27 . . . . . . cross multiply
x = √(3·27) . . . . geometric mean relationship
x = 9

Answer:
It is 1, 2, 3, or 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of money collected in the 2-day fundraiser is represented by the following equations:
- 12x + 4y = 152 .................. (i)
- 32x + 12y = 420 .................. (ii)
where x is the cost of a chicken lunch and y is the cost of a vegetarian lunch
Multiplying (i) with 3 and subtracting it from (ii)
36x + 12y - (32x + 12y) = 456 - 420
⇒ 4x = 36
⇒ x = 9
Put value of x in (i)
⇒ 12 × 9 + 4y = 152
⇒ 108 + 4y = 152
⇒ 4y = 44
⇒ y = 11
Hence, cost of the vegetarian meal is 11.
