Answer:
60.15 km
Step-by-step explanation:
If 6 km on the map represents 4 mi on land, then we'd get the answer by using the relation
6 km -> 4 mi
x km -> 40.1 mi
Where x km is the length on the map we're looking for. If we cross multiply
6 * 40.1 = 4x
240.6 = 4x
x = 240.6/4
x = 60.15 km.
That is the length we're looking for
The amplitude of this function is 4/5. Be sure you understand why that is so.
In an equation using x is just a place holder because those numbers are variables so it doesn't matter whether it is x or w.
There are infinitely many ways to do this. One such way is to draw a very thin stretched out rectangle (say one that is very tall) and a square. Example: the rectangle is 100 by 2, while the square is 4 by 4.
Both the rectangle and the square have the same corresponding angle measures. All angles are 90 degrees.
However, the figures are not similar. You cannot scale the rectangle to have it line up with the square. The proportions of the sides do not lead to the same ratio
100/4 = 25
2/4 = 0.5
so 100/4 = 2/4 is not a true equation. This numerically proves the figures are not similar.
side note: if you are working with triangles, then all you need are two pairs of congruent corresponding angles. If you have more than three sides for the polygon, then you'll need to confirm the sides are in proportion along with the angles being congruent as well.
Answer:
20 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
use this linear equation
y = 9.25x + 50
plug in 235 for y and solve for x
235 = 9.25x + 50
185 = 9.25x
20 = x
so he worked for 20 hours
hope this helped <3
