Answer:

682,000 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the ratio of 186,000 miles per second:

\frac{miles}{second}=\frac{186,000}{1}

we can set up a proportion (equivalent ratios) to find the distance, in miles, from the earth to the moon

\frac{186,000}{1}=\frac{x}{\frac{11}{3}} where 'x' is the number of miles between the earth and the moon

Cross-multiply:  x = 186,000*\frac{11}{3}

Solve for x = 682,000 miles

Answer:

A) 5.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of mid segment = (sum of parallel sides )/2

Sum of parallel sides = PQ + SR = 9 + SR

\frac{9+SR}{2}=MN\\\\\frac{9+SR}{2}=7.2 cm\\9 +SR = 7.2*2\\\\9 + SR = 14.4\\       SR = 14.4 -9 \\SR = 5.4 cm

I need help with #11 - #14.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

I can get you jump started a bit.

Step-by-step explanation:

So Each of those pairs of figures are Similar.

This means they have equal angle measures but different side lengths.

To find it, we have to make a <u>Proportion:</u>

<u>Example: #11</u>

<u />\frac{x+1}{3x+1} =\frac{8}{20}<u />

So let's solve the first one!

24x+8=20x+20\\4x=12\\x=3

Easy As Pie!

If you need more help, contact me! :)

Hope this Helps!

P.S. Stay Safe!
