Answer:

12 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Sally has  pet snail that fell into a well.

Depth of the well = 16 feet

Snail climbs up 5 feet but each night it slides back down 4 feet.

So the snail climbs up per day = 5 feet - 4 feet = 1 feet.

Number of days snail took to reach at 11 feet = 11 × 1 = 11 feet

Remaining distance to cover by the snail = 16 - 11 = 5 feet

Number of days to cover remaining 5 feet to reach the top of the well = 1 day

Therefore, snail will take 12 days to reach the top of the well.

Triangle FGH is similar to JKM.
mario62 [17]

Answer: J = 14.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>K is similar to G</em>

So we can find the scale that FHG was dilated by dividing the side length of G by the side length of K

16.56/9.2 = 1.8

So the sides of the triangle KMJ were multiplied by a factor of 1.8

to find m :

25.92/1.8 = 14.4

J = 14.4
