Answer:

x = 15

x = 15

The answers should be the same because the triangles are similar.  The ratio of the sides are in the same proportion.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.  x              12

------- = --------------

20               16

using cross products

x*16 = 20 * 12

16x = 240

divide by 16 on each side

16x/16 = 240/16

x = 15


b  x              6

------- = --------------

20               8

using cross products

x * 8 = 6 * 20

8x = 120

divide each side by 8

8x/8 = 120/8

x = 15

c.  The answers should be the same because the triangles are similar.  The ratio of the sides are in the same proportion.

Answer:

x= 15 for parts A and B.

Step-by-step explanation:

x/20 is the same as 12/16 which after cross multiplying is 16x = 240. 240/16= 15 which is why x= 15 for part A. In part A you write the equation as x/20 = 6/8 which after cross multiplying is 8x = 120. 120 divided by 8 is 15 so x=15 on both parts.

Consider this sphere inside the cylinder. Which statements are true? Check all that apply. NEED HELP ASAP​
-Dominant- [34]

Option A: The height of the cylinder is equal to the diameter of the sphere.

Option C: The radius of the sphere is half the height of the cylinder.

Option E: The volume of the sphere is two-thirds the volume of the cylinder.

Solution:

The sphere is inside the cylinder.

Let r be the radius of the sphere.

Option A: The height of the cylinder is equal to the diameter of the sphere.

The sphere is fully occupied the cylinder.

If we draw the vertical line through enter of the sphere, which is equal to the height of cylinder.That is h = d. It is true.

Option B: The height of the cylinder is two times the diameter of the sphere.

That is h = 2d. From the above option, we know that h = d.

So, it is not true.

Option C: The radius of the sphere is half the height of the cylinder.

we know that diameter = 2 × radius (d = 2r)

From option A, we have h = d.

Substitute d = 2r, we get

⇒ h = 2r

Divide by 2 on both sides, we get

$\Rightarrow \frac{h}{2}=r

Therefore, it is true.

Option D: The diameter of the sphere is equal to the radius of the cylinder.

It is not true, because diameters of both cylinder and sphere are equal.

Option E: The volume of the sphere is two-thirds the volume of the cylinder.

Radius of cylinder and sphere = r

Height of cylinder h = 2r (by option C)

Volume of cylinder = Volume of sphere

  $\Rightarrow \pi r^2 h = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 (formula)

$\Rightarrow \pi r^2 (2r) = \frac{2\times2}{3} \pi r^3

$\Rightarrow 2 \pi r^3= \frac{2}{3} \times 2\pi r^3

Hence it is true.

Option A, option C and option E are true.

it cost $35 for one adult and two children to attend a show. It cost $60 for two adults and three children to attend the same sh
N76 [4]
Assume that,
adult = x
child = y

x+2y = 35 (1st equation)
2x+3y = 60 (2nd equation)
x = 35-2y (3rd equation)

Substitute 3 into 2 :

2(35-2y) + 3y =60
70-4y +3y = 60
y = 10

x+2y = 35
x+2(10) =35
x +20 =35
x = 15

One adult = $15
