Two triangles are similar if they are the same, except one is bigger and one is smaller. Also, their angles are all the same. A career that uses similar triangles could be a mathematician, or a math teacher. Both of these need to be able to understand simple concepts like similar triangles to teach to their victims.
The small rectangle was blown up by 5 times to turn into the bigger rectangle to put x5 in the box =)
Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x + 28) + (5x + 52) + ( 2x - 10) = 180
(3x + 5x + 2x) + (28 + 52 - 10) = 180
10x + 70 = 180
10x = 180 - 70
10x = 110
x = 11
Answer:
Using the table
Maria does 1/4 of the job in 1 hour since it takes her 4 hours to complete the job , she works x hours and completes x/4 of the task
Josie does 1/2 of the job in 1 hour since it takes her 2 hours to complete the job , she works x hours and completes x/2
x/4 + x/2 = 1 completed task
Multiply by 4
x/4 *4 + x/2*4 = 1*4
x+2x =4
3x=4
x = 4/3
x = 1 1/3 hours
85 x 3 = 255
first 2 test grades were 81 and 86:
81 + 86 = 167
Need to find the 3rd to have exact average 85:
255 - 167 = 88
So her 3rd test needs to make 88 to make average of 85
Double check: 81 + 86 + 88 = 255 = 85 + 85 + 85
