The answer is 26 ! Because you would subtract 8 from 112 which would leave you with 104 now you would divide 104 and 4 ! Which gives you 26 .
If they intersect they have the same x and y values so we can say y=y which can be expressed as:
-7x/8+1/4=-3x/4+1/2 make all terms have a common denominator of 8
-7x/8+2/8=-6x/8+4/8 now multiply all terms by 8
-7x+2=-6x+4 add 6x to both sides
-x+2=4 subtract 2 from both sides
-x=2 divide both sides by -1
x=-2, now we solve for y using either original equation...
y=-3(-2)/4+1/2
y=6/4+1/2
y=6/4+2/4
y=8/4
y=2 so the lines intersect at the point:
(-2, 2)
Y = -2x - 2. Slope here is -2. A parallel line will have the same slope.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2
(3,4)...x = 3 and y = 4
now we sub and find b, the y int
4 = -2(3) + b
4 = - 6 + b
4 + 6 = b
10 = b
so ur parallel equation is : y = -2x + 10
Answer:
75
Step-by-step explanation:
If the triangles are similar, it means the ratio between the two give sides is the same. As seen from the smaller triangle the ratio of the two top sides would be 16:50 or 8:25.
Since the first side of the bigger triangle (24) is three times 8 (it's ratio side), then the other side must be 3x25 = 75, which maintains the ratio 8:25 between the two sides (24:75).
Hope this helped!
