Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you know both triangles are congruent, you can say that the corresponding sides are equal. For example, you can say:
17x+3 = 57
because they are corresponding sides of both triangles. To further solve the equation:
17x = 54 --> x = 54/17 --> <u>3 3/17</u>
Same thing for Y. lines PX and FD are congruent, so, you can say:
4y-3 = 54
4y=57
<u>y= 14.25</u>
The direct variation equation is:
d=kt
where d is the distance that the giraffe travels
k is the constant of variation
and t is time
Now we are told that the giraffe can travel 800 ft in 20 seconds, so we can solve for the constant of variation (k)
800=k(20) divide both sides by 20
k=40-------------and the units are ft per sec
So now we can write
d=40t
ck
d=40t
800ft=40*20 ft
800 ft= 800 ft
Hope this helps!
First you multiply 5*5 which is 25 and then you multiply 25*12 which is 300 and 300*14 is 4,200.so your answer is 4,200
That is one half also 1/2 if this was not what u where looking for then just tell me
