Answer:
second option
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5.3 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Because CD corresponds to BC, the scale factor from triangle ABC to triangle CDE, is 7/8. Now, DE corresponds to AB, so to get DE, we must multiply the value of AB by 7/8. 6 times 7/8 is 5.25, and rounding to the nearest tenth of a foot, the value of DE is 5.3.
He uses 5/8 tanks of gas in one week.
In 5 he will use, 5/8 *5 = 25/8 in 5 weeks
This can be simplified too:
3.125 tanks of gas
The answer is, 25/8 tanks of gas or 3.125 tanks of gas
Solve for x (isolate/get x by itself)
Add 5 on both sides

Subtract 1/4x on both sides

Make the denominators the same of the fractions in order to combine them. Multiply 2 to the top and bottom of 1/4x

Multiply 8 on both sides

-16 = x
