Answer:

JK = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ BKJ and Δ BCA are similar and ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{JK}{AC} = \frac{BK}{BC} , substitute values

\frac{JK}{40} = \frac{3}{5} ( cross- multiply )

5JK = 120 ( divide both sides by 5 )

JK = 24

If blueberries cost $4.00 per pound, how many pounds of blueberries can you buy for $1.00?
Masteriza [31]

If x is the number of berries you can buy with 1 dollar,

1 pound of blueberries = $4.00

x pound of berries = $1.00

Lets set up a proportion- because these are directly proportional- when there is more pounds of berries, it will cost more.

\frac{1}{4.00} = \frac{x}{1.00}

Cross multiply

4x=1

Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x

x=1/4 or $0.25

Z - 1,092.8 = 1,200<br><br>A. z = 2,292.8<br><br>B. z= 2,193.8<br><br>C. z= 2,291.2
OleMash [197]

Answer:

A. z = 2292.8 is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable (z). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Add 1092.8 to both sides

z - 1092.8 (+1092.8) = 1200 (+1092.8)

z = 1200 + 1092.8

z = 2292.8

A. z = 2292.8 is your answer

A 40-foot pipe is cut into three sections. The longest section is three times as long as the shortest, and the middle-sized sect
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

P=40

a + b + x = P

a = 3x    

b = x + 5

substitute for b & y

3x + (x+5) + x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

longest section 1 = a

mid length section 2 = b

shortest section 3 = x

P=40

a + b + x = P

a = 3x    

b = x + 5

substitute for b & y

3x + (x+5) + x = 40

5x + 5 = 40

5x = 35

x = 7

b = 12

a = 21
