Solve for x, the triangles are similar

Mathematics
1 answer:
elixir [45]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ ESR and Δ EGF are similar, then ratios of corresponding sides are equal, so

\frac{ES}{EG} = \frac{ER}{EF} , substitute values

\frac{45}{12x-3} = \frac{55}{143} ( cross- multiply )

55(12x - 3) = 6435 ( divide both sides by 55 )

12x - 3 = 117 ( add 3 to both sides )

12x = 120 ( divide both sides by 12 )

x = 10

There are eleven people on a softball team and nine different positions. Work through the questions to determine how many ways a
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

19958400

10

8

1814400

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Permutation is the act of arranging the members into order

- The number of permutations of n members taken r at a time is

  denoted by nPr

- nPr = n!/(n - r)! , where n! means n(n - 1)(n - 2)(n - 3) ......... × 1

* Lets solve the problem

- There are eleven people on a softball team

∴ n = 11

- There are nine different positions

∴ r = 9

∴ The number of ways can be made = 11P9

∵ 11P9 = 11!/(11 - 9)! = 11!/2! = 19958400

* The number of total arrangements of the player is 19958400

- If Amy does not want to play pitcher

∵ They are 11 players

∴ The number of players can be pitch = 11 - 1 = 10

* If Amy does not want to play pitcher, then there are now 10 people

 available to pitch

- Assuming the pitcher has already be chosen

∴ There are 10 remaining players

∵ The positions are 9

∴ The remaining positions = 9 - 1 = 8

* There are 8 remaining positions

- Lets find how many ways to arrange the remaining positions

∵ n = 10

∵ r = 8

∴ 10P8 = 10!/(10 - 8)! = 10!/2! = 1814400

* The number of ways to arrange the remaining players is 1814400

Complete the table thanks in advance
inna [77]
Y = 1/2 x

for x = 0 → y = 1/2 · 0 = 0
for x = 2 → y = 1/2 · 2 = 1


   x      | 0 | 2 |
y=1/2x| 0 | 1 |


y = x + 3

for x = 0 → y = 0 + 3 = 3
for x = -3 → y = -3 + 3 = 0

    x    | 0 | 3 |
y=x+3|-3 | 0 |
