that is 15 3's by the way.
DEF = BAC : x = 15 <==
once u allign ur triangles, u will see that there is a scale factor of 1.5.
6 * 1.5 = 9
1.5(x - 5) = 15
1.5x - 7.5 = 15
1.5x = 15 + 7.5
1.5x = 22.5
x = 22.5/1.5
x = 15 <==
Answer:
x=17
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-3=6(x-10)
3x-3=6x-60
57=3x
x=17
System of equations:
We'll need one equation for the amount of pizzas, and another for the total cost of the pizzas. In this case, x will represent small pizzas, and y will represent large pizzas.
3x + 4y = 100
x + y = 30
Solving the system of equations:
First, we need to solve for one variable in one equation.
x + y = 30
x = 30 - y
Then, we'll take our equation that is solved for x and plug it into the other equation from above.
3(30 - y) + 4y = 100
Next, we solve for y.
90 - 3y + 4y = 100
90 + y = 100
y = 10
Finally, we take our value for y and plug it back in to the very first equation and solve for x.
x = 30 - 10
x = 20
Answer:
The student has sold 10 large pizzas and 20 small pizzas.
