Answer:
x = 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
=
= 3
multiply both sides by (x - 10)
3(x - 10) = 39 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x - 10 = 13 ( add 10 to both sides )
x = 23
For the first one to find the total area you have to first find the area of the triangle 1/2(10x12.5)=62.5 and then the square (13.4x12.5)=167.5 which is 10468.75 totaled
Answer:
9 hr * 60 min/hr = 540 min. 540 min * 60 sec/min = 32,400 sec. Use the method described by panic mode: round the number down until there is only one non-zero digit left. Here, 32,400 rounds down to 30,000. Now count the number of zeroes; the result is the order of magnitude: 4. (You see this in scientific notation also: 30,000 = 3 × 10^4.)
