an engineer decides to use similar triangles to find the distance across the river she makes the diagram below which triangles t
sergiy2304 [10]
<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

The missing diagram is shown below. Remember that shapes are similar if you can turn one into the other by moving, rotating, flipping, or scaling. So this means you can make the object bigger or smaller. So in this case, we know that ΔABC is similar to ΔDEF. If so, we can establish the following proportion:

\frac{h}{56.7}=\frac{17.2}{52.4} \\ \\ h=56.7\times \frac{17.2}{52.4} \\ \\ h=18.61m

Our goal is to find x. So by Pythagorean theorem:

x=\sqrt{17.2^2+18.61^2} \\ \\ \boxed{x=25.34m}

Conclusion:

<em>ΔABC ~ΔDEF</em>

<em>Distance across the river is 25.34m </em>

Write the equation of a line that includes the point (22, 12) and
STatiana [176]

Let's start with y = 4x + b (since 4 is the slope);

We need to find what number should be put instead of b;

Then, let's see what needs to be done;

Plug in the y and x values from the coordinate (22,12) into y=4x+b;

12 = 4(22) + b

Solve;

12 = 88 + b

12 - 88 = b

b = -76

Remember the equation y = 4x + b? Put the -76 instead of b:

y = 4x + -76

or: y = 4x - 76

That is the equation.

To make it standard form, put x and y both in the left side, with x first then y:

-4x + y = -76

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

12 different types of sandwich could be made.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since I am making a sandwich at the cafeteria where they have 2 kinds of bread, 2 kinds of cheese, and 3 kinds of meat, to determine how many different sandwiches could I make the following calculations must be performed:

Bread x cheese x meat = X

2 x 2 x 3 = X

4 x 3 = X

12 = X

Therefore, 12 different types of sandwich could be made.

Need help fast! Where does the line y=x-9 cross the y axis? Same with the line y=-2x-3 . Please give me a detailed method as wel
Goshia [24]
Y = x - 9 meets the y-axis at (0,-9) y = -2x - 3 meets the y-axis at (0,-3) This is because for every linear equation, there is a formula corresponding to it as y=mx + c, where (0,c) is where it meets the y-axis. As we assign the value of 0 to x, only c will be left to equal y, being the intercept.
