Answer:

The length of side <em>b</em> is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles are similar if they have the same shape, but can be different sizes.

When two figures are similar, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal.

If you know that two objects are similar, you can use proportions and cross products to find the length of an unknown side. We know that the triangle ABC is similar to the triangle XYZ. Therefore the following relation must be true:

                                                      \frac{AB}{AC} =\frac{XY}{XZ}

We know that side AB is equal to 8, side AC is equal to <em>b, </em>side XY is equal to 2\frac{2}{3}, and side XZ is equal to 3.

Substituting these values into the above relation and solving for <em>b</em> we get that:

\frac{8}{b} =\frac{2\frac{2}{3} }{3}\\\\\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 2\frac{2}{3}=\frac{8}{3}\\\\\frac{8}{b}=\frac{\frac{8}{3}}{3}\\\\8\cdot \:3=b\frac{8}{3}\\\\24=b\frac{8}{3}\\\\8b=72\\\\b=9

ASAP PLEASE HELP Find the​ x- and​ y-intercepts of the line that passes through the given points.
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Set it up using the slope from the two points. (c - (-5))/3 - 1 = slope = (c + 5)/2. Now put this into slope intercept since they give you the y intercept of 7. y = x*(c + 5)/2 + 7. Now put in the point, (1,-5). -5 = 1*(c+5)/2 + 7. Subtract 7 from both sides. Now multiply through and you can solve for c.
