Answer:
a and d = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
since ABC and DEF are similar m<A = m<D so you have the equation
5x + 12 = 8x
subtract 8x from both sides
5x + 12 -8x = 0
subtract 12 from both sides
5x -8x = -12
combine like terms
-3x = -12
devide by -3
x = 4
plug 4 into equation
5(4) + 12 = 8*4
20 + 12 = 32
32 = 32

2) according to the rules above:

Answer:
Manuel made his first mistake in step 2 leading to the continuous mistakes
Final answer=185
Step-by-step explanation:
Manuel made at least one error as she found the value of this expression. 2(-20) + 3[5/4(-20)] + 5[2/5(50)] + 4(50) Step 1: 2(-20) + 3(-25) + 5(20) + 4(50) Step 2: (3 + 2)(-20 + -25) + (5 + 4)(20 + 50) Step 3: 5(-45) + 9(70) Step 4: -225 + 630 Step 5: 405 Identify the step in which Chris made her first error. After identifying the step with the first error, write the corrected steps and find the final answer.
2(-20) + 3[5/4(-20)] + 5[2/5(50)] + 4(50)
Step 1: 2(-20) + 3(-25) + 5(20) + 4(50)
Step 2: -40 - 75 + 100 +
200
Step 3: -115 + 300
Step 4: 185
Manuel made his first error in step 2 by combining two different terms into one as he has done
(3 + 2)(-20 + -25) and also (5 + 4)(20 + 50)
Step 2: (3 + 2)(-20 + -25) + (5 + 4)(20 + 50)
Step 3: 5(-45) + 9(70) Step 4: -225 + 630 Step 5: 405
He should have evaluated the terms separately as I have done above, giving us 185 as the final answer in contrast to his 405 final answer.
Answer: 2/3
Step-by-step explanation: We can rewrite the ratio 6 out of 9 as the fraction 6/9 by putting 6 in the position of the numerator and 9 in the position of the denominator.
Notice however, 6/9 is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 6 and 9 which is 3 to get the equivalent fraction 2/3.
Therefore, the ratio 6 out of 9 can be rewritten as the fraction 2/3.
