Answer:
MQ=14
Step-by-step explanation:
The two triangles are similar
So the equation is
12/72=x/12
1/6=x/12
x=2
Answer:
- reflection in x = 1
- translation up 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The orientation of B is the opposite of the orientation of A, so a reflection is involved. The smallest angle is at the bottom in both figures, and the largest angle is on the right in A and the left in B, so the reflection is left-right, rather than up-down.
The point midway between the largest angle vertices is on the vertical line x=1, so that line can be used for reflection. Reflecting A across that line will put its large-angle vertex at (3, 0), so a translation up 2 units is also needed.
The reflection on x=1 and translation up 2 can be done in either order.

<em>Additional comment</em>
A combination of reflection and translation is called a "glide reflection." Our choice of x = 1 as the line of reflection takes care of any horizontal translation that would be required if a different vertical line were used. For example, reflection across the y-axis would require a subsequent translation up 2 and right 2.
The value of 4 is 4000, this is because it is in the thousands column (units,tens,hundreds,thousands etc)
Answer: the bill for a hamburger is $0.7
the bill for a salad is $1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the bill for a hamburger.
Let y represent the bill for a salad.
The bill for five hamburgers and four salads is $9.50. This means that
5x + 4y = 9.5- - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
The bill for four hamburgers and five salads is $10.30. This means that
4x + 5y = 10.3 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 5, it becomes
20x + 16y = 38
20x + 25y = 51.5
Subtracting, it becomes
- 9y = - 13.5
y = - 13.5/ - 9
y = 1.5
Substituting y = 1.5 into equation 1, it becomes
5x + 4(1.5) = 9.5
5x + 6 = 9.5
5x = 9.5 - 6 = 3.5
x = 3.5/5 = 0.7
