Answer:
B) 3.0 ml
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's begin with x as the number of slices the runner up ate.
Davonne ate four more than twice
So the equation should look somewhat like this.
4+2x=11
2x=7
x=3.5
So the runner up ate 3.5 slices
<span>Davonne ate four more than twice as many slices as the runner up. If Davonne ate 11 slices, then how many slices did the runner up eat?</span>
The expression 36x² - 121 is in the 'difference of two squares form' which is (a² - b²)
Factorising (a² - b²) gives (a+b)(a-b)
Factorising 36x² - 121 gives (6x+11)(6x-11)
We sketch two triangles, DFE and DGH, as shown below
Side DF correspond to side DG, the scale factor is 40÷32=1.25
Side DE correspond to side DH, the scale factor is 30÷24=1.25
That leaves us with the last corresponding sides, EF and HG which would also have a scale factor 1.25
Both triangles share the same angle D
We can conclude triangle DFE and triangle DGH are similar for property SSS and SAS
