Answer:
Thale's theorem stated that if a line parallel to the base of the triangle intersects it, the ratio of sides of the respective sides is equal
In this diagram, since the 2 horizontal lines are parallel
the ratio of the 2 sides on the left and the 2 sides on the right will be equal
Hence,
x/15 = 2/10
x = 30/10
x = 3
Answer:
equation is: width = area / length
width = 62.5 yd
Explanation:
For the first rectangle:
We have:
length = 75 yd and width = 60 yd
Therefore:
area = length * width
area = 75 * 60
area = 4500 yd²
For the second rectangle:
We have:
area = area of first rectangle = 4500 yd²
length = 72 yd
area = length * width
width = area / length ............> The required equation
width = 4500 / 72
width = 62.5 yd
Hope this helps :)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the weights of the large and small boxes, respectively. The problem statement gives rise to the system of equations ...
x + y = 85 . . . . . combined weight of a large and small box
70x +50y = 5350 . . . . combined weight of 70 large and 50 small boxes
We can subtract 50 times the first equation from the second to find the weight of a large box.
(70x +50y) -50(x +y) = (5350) -50(85)
20x = 1100 . . . . simplify
x = 55 . . . . . . . divide by 20
Using this in the first equation, we can find the weight of a small box.
55 +y = 85
y = 30 . . . . . . . subtract 55
A large box weighs 55 pounds; a small box weighs 30 pounds.
Answer:
Company B.
Step-by-step explanation:
On the graph, when x is 1, y is 50. That means it is $50 for one window. On the chart, when there is 1 window, the cost is $55. So, company B is more expensive!
