Use similar triangles to solve for the missing lengths below.

Mathematics
1 answer:
jek_recluse [69]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 14

y = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

By the property of similar triangles,

If two triangles are similar their corresponding sides will be proportional.

\frac{AB}{EF}= \frac{AC}{GE}

\frac{5}{10}=\frac{7}{x}

x = \frac{70}{5}

x = 14

Similarly, \frac{AB}{EF}= \frac{CB}{GF}

\frac{5}{10}=\frac{9}{y}

y = \frac{90}{5}

y = 18

Goshia [24]

Answer:

<h2>the slope m = 3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

From the graph we have the points (0, 4) and (-2, -2). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{-2-4}{-2-0}=\dfrac{-6}{-2}=3

Translate the following sentence into an equation using n to represent the unknown number. Then solve the equation for n.
Marina CMI [18]
It's pretty straightforward and simple:
Six more means + 6.
Twice a number means 2n.
Is 16 means = 16

Now combine these three definitions and you will receive:
6 + 2n = 16

Now solve this simple equation:
6 + 2n = 16
2n = 16 - 6
2n = 10
n = 10 / 2 = 5

So the correct answer is D.

Schach [20]

Answer:

20 % decay

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equations are in the form

y = a * b^x

a is the initial value

b is the growth or decay

b>1 is growth b-1 rate  of growth

b <1 decay  1-b rate of decay

1-.8 = .2

Change to decimal form

20 % decay
