Answer:

GKN is 3/4 of AHL

Step-by-step explanation:

Compare the similar sides. 3:4. 6:8. 15:20. All of them are equivalent to 3/4

Answer:

A. 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find which sides correspond to which other ones'.

The sides in order of increasing in triangle 1: NK, GK, GN

The sides in order of increasing in triangle 2: AH, HL, AL

AH~NK  4 ~ 3

HL~GK   8 ~ 6

AL~GN   15 ~ 20

When we put them into a fraction and simplify that should be our answer.

\frac{3}{4}  =  \frac{6}{8} = \frac{15}{20}

The simplest fraction is 3/4 so that is our answer.

If you want to make ΔAHL = ΔNKG you have to multiply each of the sides by 3/4. But if you want to make ΔNKG = ΔAHL multiply each side of ΔNKG by 4/3.

Alex787 [66]
Elliott's bed -> 75 in
Elliott before -> 5 ft 11 in = 71 in
Elliott after -> 71 + 6 = 77 in

77 - 75 = 2 in

Elliott's bed is shorter than him by 2 inches.

Passes through (1,12) and has a vertex (10,-4)
agasfer [191]

Answer: 16/81 (x-10)^2 -4

Step-by-step explanation:

To write a vertex equation with just a point and the vertex, you have to figure out the variables.

In vertex form, the equation is y = a (x-h)^2 + k

Your y is 12, x = 1, h = 10, and k = -4

Plug everything into equation

12 = a (1 - 10)^2 -4

12 = a (-9)^2 - 4

12 = 81a - 4

16 = 81a

16/81 = a

Now you know what the 'a' value is.

If you graph 16/81 (x-10)^2 -4 , you will get a point at (1,12) and a vertex of (10,-4)!

I hope this helps!

Help please I really need help and thank you :))))​
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

14) x = 30°

15) x = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

14) 60 + x = 90

     x = 90 - 60

     x = 30°

15) 130 + x = 180

     x = 180 - 130

     x = 50°

Hope this helps

Y = 2/3 x -3 y = -3/2 x +2 what statement about the lines are true
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

The product of the slopes of lines is -1.

i.e. m₁ × m₂ = -1

Thus, the lines are perpendicular.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept

Given the lines

y = 2/3 x -3       --- Line 1

y = -3/2x +2      --- Line 2

<u>The slope of line 1</u>

y = 2/3 x -3       --- Line 1

By comparing with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

The slope of line 1 is: m₁ = 2/3

<u>The slope of line 2</u>

y = -3/2x +2      --- Line 2

By comparing with the slope-intercept y = mx+b form of the line equation

The slope of line 2 is: m₂ = -3/2

We know that when two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1.

Let us check the product of two slopes m₁ and m₂

m₁ × m₂ = (2/3)(-3/2 )

m₁ × m₂ = -1

Thus, the product of the slopes of lines is -1.

i.e. m₁ × m₂ = -1

Thus, the lines are perpendicular.
