Answer:
The value of x is 12.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the value of x, we first need to find the scale factor. We can find this by dividing any side of the larger triangle with the corresponding part of the smaller triangle.
28/7 = 4
This means everything in the larger triangle is 4 times as great as the smaller triangle. Knowing this, we can set the larger hypotenuse equal to 4 times the smaller.
6x + 28 = 4(25)
6x + 28 = 100
6x = 72
x = 12
It will take one hour and thirty minutes.
Here is the equation: x+(x+20) = 120
Since you can't combine anything yet, its x+x+20=120
You need to get x by itself
Minus 20 from both sides
Its x+x=100 now
Combine the x's which is now 2x
Now divide 100 by 2 which is 50
x=50
---------------
Lets check:
50+(50+20)=120
Now combine the numbers in the parentheses
Its now 50+70=120
50+70=120 and 70-50=20
As you can see, he ran 50 minutes the first day and 70 minutes the second day
Answer: 4^-2
Step-by-step explanation:
the Bases stays the same the powers changes to negative -2 because you are stubtracting 6-8 which gives you negative -2.
Find the amount of the increase:
27800 - 23400 = 4,400
Find number of years: 2012 - 2008 = 4 years
Divide amount of change by number of years:
4,400 / 4 = 1,100 people per year.
