Answer: x = 7
`Step-by-step explanation:
Because the figure shows two triangles that are similar. we can write and solve an equation of ratios:
9 cm 72 cm
----------- = -----------
3x - 20 56 cm
Cross-multiplying, we get (3x - 20)(72 cm) = (9 cm)(56 cm) = 504 cm²
Dividing both sides by 72 cm, we get:
3x - 20 = (504 cm²) / (72 cm) = 7
Then 3x - 20 = 7, and 3x = 27. Then x must be 9.
Answer:
Linear Function

Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x----> the time in hours
y----> the total inches of snow on the ground
we know that
The function that best model this situation is the linear function
so

In this problem

----> the y-intercept
substitute

Yes you are correct that is the answer.
Nearest 1,000 = 24,062,000
Nearest 100,000= 24,100,000
Hope its correct :)
x^2b + t = x^2e
x^2e - x^2b = t
x^2(e - b) = t
x^2 = t /(e -b)
x = √[t /(e -b)] or x = - √[t /(e -b)]
