Hello Alondra,
To solve this problem, you have to write a proportion using the ratios formed by the similar triangles.
Or proportion can be:
x/(x+2) = 10/15
Cross multiply to solve it:
10x + 20 = 15x
20 = 5x
4 = x
The value of x is 4.
I hope this helps,
MrEQ
Answer:
from the picture the answer is D.
Step-by-step explanation:
to find x subtract 18x from 4x which will give you -14x=-36
divide both sides by -14
Hello!
So you will use the Pythagorean Theron equation which is Asquare + bsquare=C square
Plug in what you are given to find the missing piece
A square+ (2.6)square= (6.2) square
Asquare+ 6.76= 38.44
(Subtract 6.76to both sides to isolate A)
Asquare= 31.68
(Take the square root of both sides to find out what A is)
A=5.628
Answer:
what exactly did u want me to work out?
The answer she has is not correct.
All the steps she did are correct, except they forgot to convert the decimal answer into the proper percentage by multiplying it by 100.
The correct answer should be 0.125 * 100 = 12.5%
