<u>Given</u>:
Given that the figure of similar triangles.
The altitude of the triangle is x.
The length of the left part is 30.
The length of the right part is 15.
We need to determine the value of x.
<u>Value of x:</u>
The value of x can be determined using the geometric mean theorem.
Thus, we have;
Substituting the values, we have;
Cross multiplying, we get;
Taking square root on both sides, we have;
Thus, the value of x is 15√2
<span>Traveled Downstream a distance of 33 Mi and then came right back. If the speed of the current was 12 mph and the total trip took 3 hours and 40 minutes.
Let S = boat speed in still water then (s + 12) = downstream speed (s -12) = upstream speed
Given Time = 3 hours 40 minutes = 220 minutes = (220/60) h = (11/3) h Time = Distance/Speed
33/(s +12) + 33/(s-12) = 11/3 3{33(s-12) + 33(s +12)} = 11(s+12) (s -12) 99(s -12 + s + 12) = 11(</span> s^{2} + 12 s -12 s -144) 99(2 s) = 11(s^{2} -144) 198 s/11 = (s^{2} -144) 18 s = (s^{2} -144) (s^{2} - 18 s - 144) = 0 s^{2} - 24 s + 6 s -144 =0 s(s- 24) + 6(s -24) =0 (s -24) (s + 6) = 0 s -24 = 0, s + 6 =0 s = 24, s = -6 Answer) s = 24 mph is the average speed of the boat relative to the water.

Answer:
0.18
Step-by-step explanation:
The relative frequency of eight graders who want fruit smoothie :
Number of eight graders who want fruit smoothie / total number of students surveyed
= 45 / 250
= 0.18
