I think she can use 48:(48+36) 
horrorfan [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The Answer is \frac{48}{48+36}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let me draw this triangle for you as you haven't drawn the triangle.

To find the side SR , you have shown that

ΔPST ~(is similar to)ΔPRQ [AA]

As, you know when triangles are similar their sides are proportional.

So, \frac{60}{60+x}=\frac{48}{48+36}\\\frac{60}{60+x}=\frac{48}{84}\\\frac{60}{60+x}=\frac{4}{7}\\240 +4x=420\\4x=420-240\\4x =180\\x=45

You can solve this question using other way also

As, ST║RQ

then \frac{PS}{SR}=\frac{PT}{TQ}⇒  [ if in a triangle a line is parallel to a side

intersecting the other two sides in distinct points then the ratio of the segments where the line segment intersects the other two sides are same.]

\frac{48}{36}=\frac{60}{x}\\x=45

From the set {4, 8, 16}, use substitution to determine which value of x makes the equation true.
Annette [7]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Use substitution: substitute each number from the set in for x, and see if the result from dividing is 45.

4

360/x=45

360/4=90

90 ≠ 45

Therefore, 4 does not make the equation true

8

360/x=45

360/8=45

45=45

Therefore, 8 does make the equation true.

16

360/x=45

360/16=22.5

22.5 ≠ 45

Therefore, 16 does not make the equation true.

So, 8 is the value that makes the equation true

Molodets [167]

Answer:

24/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define systems of equation

10x - 16y = 12

5x - 3y = 4

Step 2: Rewrite one of the equations

5x = 4 + 3y

x = 4/5 + 3y/5

Step 3: Solve for <em>y</em> using Substitution

  1. Substitute 2nd rewritten equation into 1: 10(4/5 + 3y/5) - 16y = 12
  2. Distribute the 10 to both terms: 40/5 + 30y/5 - 16y = 12
  3. Simplify the fractions down: 8 + 6y - 16y = 12
  4. Combine like terms (y): 8 - 10y = 12
  5. Subtract 8 on both sides: -10y = 4
  6. Divide both sides by -10: y = 4/-10
  7. Simply the fraction down: y = -2/5

Step 4: Substitute <em>y</em> back into an original equation to solve for <em>x</em>

  1. Substitute: 5x - 3(-2/5) = 4
  2. Multiply: 5x + 6/5 = 4
  3. Subtract 6/5 on both sides: 5x = 14/5
  4. Divide both sides by 5: x = 14/25

Step 5: Check to see if solution set (14/25, -2/5) is a solution.

  1. Substitute into an original equation: 10(14/25) - 16(-2/5) = 12
  2. Multiply each term: 28/5 + 32/5 = 12
  3. Add: 12 = 12

Here, we see that x = 14/25, y = -2/5 and solution (14/25, -2/5) indeed works.

Step 6: Find <em>x</em> <em>- y</em>

x = 14/25

y = -2/5

  1. Substitute: 14/25 - (-2/5)
  2. Simplify (change signs): 14/25 + 2/5
  3. Add: 24/25

Hope this helped! :)
