Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are congruent then corresponding angles are congruent.
That is ∠ D and ∠ B are corresponding angles and congruent, thus
4x - 20 = 2x + 30 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
2x - 20 = 30 ( add 20 to both sides )
2x = 50 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 25
For this answer it is:
12 inches = 36 feet
First you have to find the intercepts!
To find the y-intercept (I usually do that first), pretend x=0.
Then it becomes:
4(0)-3y=12
Which then becomes:
-3y=12.
Divide both sides, and y = -4.
Then the (x,y) coordinate would become (0, -4).
Next you would find the x-intercept, and pretend y = 0.
Which then becomes:
4x-3(0)=12
3x0 cancels out to become:
4x = 12
And x = 3 because division stuffs.
Then THIS point would then be (3,0).
So then, you would plot (0,-4) and (3,0) on a graph and connect the points! I attached a picture for reference.
hope that helped~
Answer:
12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
y varies inversely as x.
y = k/x
10 = k/20
200 = k
The constant proportion k is 200.
16 = 200/x
Cross multiply.
200 = 16x
200/16 = x
x = 12.5
Answer:
Width = 15 feet
Length = 45 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to fence in a rectangular piece of land for your dog to run and play. The length is 3 times the width. If the perimeter is 120 ft, what are the dimensions of your very own dog park?
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W
The length is 3 times the width.
L = Length = 3W
W = Width
P = 120 ft
Hence:
120 = 2L + 2W
120 = 2(3W) + 2W
120 = 6W + 2W
120 = 8W
W = 120/8
W = 15 feet
Solving for Length
L = 3W
L = 3 × 15 feet
L = 45 feet
Therefore, the dimensions of your very own dog park is
Width = 15 feet
Length = 45 feet
