There are 92 beds in a 40-room motel. Each rooms has 2 or 3 beds. How many rooms have 2 beds?

1 answer:

7 0

$x-\ rooms\ with\ 2\ beds\\\\
y-\rooms\ with\ 3\ beds\\\\\\
x+y=40\ \ \ \ --->\ \ \ x=40-y\\
2x+3y=92\\\\
2(40-y)+3y=92\\\\
80-2y+3y=92\\\\
y+80=92\ \ \ | subtract\ 80\\\\
y=12\\\\x=40-12=28\\\\
28\ rooms\ has\ 2\ beds.$

Given points A (0,0), B (4,0), C (0,2), D (0,0), E (2,0), and F (0,1), which of the following proves that

Similar triangles may or may not have equal side lengths

Triangles ABC and DEF are similar by SSS theorem

<h3>How to determine the similarity statement</h3>

The coordinates of the two triangles are:

A (0,0), B (4,0), C (0,2), D (0,0), E (2,0), and F (0,1)

Calculate the lengths of both triangles using the following distance formula

$d = \sqrt{(x_2 -x_1)^2 + (y_2 -y_1)^2}$

For triangle ABC, we have:

$AB = \sqrt{(0 -4)^2 + (0 -0)^2} = 4$

$BC = \sqrt{(4 -0)^2 + (0 -2)^2} = 2\sqrt 5$

$CA = \sqrt{(0 -0)^2 + (0 -2)^2} = 2$

For triangle DEF, we have:

$DE = \sqrt{(0 -2)^2 + (0 -0)^2} = 2$

$EF = \sqrt{(2 -0)^2 + (0 -1)^2} = \sqrt 5$

$FD = \sqrt{(0 -0)^2 + (1 -0)^2} = 1$

Divide corresponding sides of the triangles to calculate the scale factor k

$k = \frac{AB}{DE} = \frac{BC}{EF} = \frac{CA}{FD}$

This gives

$k = \frac{4}{2} = \frac{2\sqrt 5}{\sqrt 5} = \frac{2}{1}$

Evaluate the quotients

$k = 2 = 2 = 2$

Since the quotients are equal, then the triangles are similar

Hence, triangles ABC and DEF are similar by SSS theorem
