Answer:
a) yes; 12/15/17 ~ 20/25/x; SAS
b) x = 28 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The left-side segments are in the ratio ...
top : bottom = 12 : 8 = 3 : 2
The right side segments are in the ratio ...
top : bottom = 15 : 10 = 3 : 2
These are the same ratio, and the angle at the peak is the same in both triangles, so the triangles are similar by the SAS postulate.
Normally, a similarity statement would identify the triangles by the labels on their vertices. Here, there are no such labels, so we choose to write the statement in terms of the side lengths, shortest to longest:
12/15/17 ~ 20/25/x
__
The sides of similar triangles are proportional, so the ratio of longest to shortest sides will be the same in the two triangles. In the smaller triangle, the longest side is 17/12 times the length of the shortest side. The value of x will be 17/12 times the length of the shortest side in the larger triangle:
x = 17/12 · 20 = 340/12
x = 28 1/3
Answer:
m = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope Formula: 
Simply plug in our coordinates to find slope:
m = (11 - 2)/(5 - 8)
m = 9/-3
m = -3
Answer:
1.44m^3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Number of balls= 8
Diameter of ball = 70cm = 0.7m
Radius= 35cm= 0.35m
We know that a ball has a spherical shape
The volume of a sphere is
V= 4/3πr^3
substitute
V= 4/3*3.142*0.35^3
V= 0.18m^3
Hence if 1 ball has a volume of 0.18m^3
Then 8 balls will have a volume of
=0.18*8
=1.44m^3
You have a line:
y=mx+b (slope-intercepted form)
m=slope of this line.
The slope of a line perpendicular to that given line will be: ´"m´"
m´=-1/m.
For example:
y=8x+3
m=8
The solpe fo a line perpendicular to "y=8x+3" is:
m`=-1/8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x-3y)+2(4x+y)-(x+y)
5x-15y+8x+2y-x-y
5x+8x-x-15y+2y-y
13x-x-13y-y
12x-12y
