Similar triangles have corresponding sides with proportional lengths.
AB/BC = DE/EF
5/9 = 7.5/EF
5(EF) = 9 * 7.5
5(EF) = 67.5
EF = 13.5
Given equations:
P=w+2
p=7w-16
Compare both equations
7w-16=w+2
Add 16 to both sides.
7w=w+18
Subtract w from both sides.
6w=18
Divide both sides by 6.
w=3, which is the age of Winnie.
Now Peter's age=3+2=5 years
Option A is the correct method to find the age of Peter and Winnie.
3/6
because 6 divided by 2 = 3
and
12 divided by 2 = 6
Yes, there are many possible answers. An equation that can model your situation is:
4a+4b=75, with a being the amount of adult tickets sold, and b being the amount of children’s tickets sold.
Because both tickets cost 4 dollars, you would multiply the amount of tickets sold, by the price (in dollars) of the ticket.
So, you can find possible answers by substituting the amount of adult tickets sold. Say, 4 adults bought tickets. You could then substitute a for 4. So the equation would look like this.
4(4)+4b=75
16 + 4b = 75
4b = 75 - 16
4b = 59
Divide each side by four
B = 14.75
The reason you got a decimal number is because 75 cannot be divided by 4 evenly. So, in this context, you could say that 15 children bought tickets. One child had an issue, and Lisa gave them a 25% discount. This would explain why there are only 75 dollars worth in tickets. I hope I helped, this is my first question I have ever answered so I’m not entirely sure if this was helpful or not. Hope you figure this out!
