Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay first set a comparison since the two triangles are similar

x-1/20=x-1+27/3x+8

x-1/20 = x+26/3x+8

cross multiply

20x+520=3x^2+8x-3x-8

3x^2-15x-528=0

3(x^2-5x-176)=0

im kinda lazy to factor this out so i used an online calculator right here but factor it out like a good kid

x=16, x=-11

it has to be positive so x=16

4/5 divided by 1/3 plus 1/5 minus 3/5
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

  \frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}=-12

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}

Solution Steps:

\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}

as

\mathrm{Combine\:the\:fractions\:}\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}:\quad -\frac{2}{5}

so

=\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{5}}    

\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{\frac{b}{c}}{a}=\frac{b}{c\:\cdot \:a}

=\frac{4}{5\left(\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{5}\right)}

join  \frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{5}:\quad -\frac{1}{15}

so

=\frac{4}{5\left(-\frac{1}{15}\right)}

\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(-a\right)=-a

=\frac{4}{-5\cdot \frac{1}{15}}

\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{a}{-b}=-\frac{a}{b}

=-\frac{4}{5\cdot \frac{1}{15}}

\mathrm{Multiply\:}5\cdot \frac{1}{15}\::\quad \frac{1}{3}

so

=-\frac{4}{\frac{1}{3}}

\mathrm{Simplify}\:\frac{4}{\frac{1}{3}}:\quad \frac{12}{1}

so

=-\frac{12}{1}

\mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:\frac{a}{1}=a

=-12

Therefore

                  \frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}=-12

What is the solution to the inequality shown below?
lesantik [10]

To solve the inequality, you need to isolate/get the variable "p" by itself in the inequality:

5p + 26 < 72           Subtract 26 on both sides

5p + 26 - 26 < 72 - 26

5p < 46      Divide 5 on both sides to get "p" by itself

\frac{5p}{5}

p

p < 9.2       Your answer is A

12(6k+3)+4(7-5k) the distributive property simply each expression
hodyreva [135]
The distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac

12(6k + 3) + 4(7 - 5k) = 12(6k) + 12(3) + 4(7) + 4(-5k)

= 72k + 36 + 28 - 20k = 52k + 64

Identify the glide reflection rule in the given figure
Maslowich

Answer:

Option (3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Glide reflection of a figure is defined by the translation and reflection across a line.

To understand the glide rule in the figure attached we will take a point A.

Coordinates of the points A and A' are (2, -1) and (-2, 4).

Translation of pint A by 5 units upwards,

Rule to be followed,

A(x, y) → A"[x, (y + 5)]

A(2, -1) → A"(2, 4)

Followed by the reflection across y-axis,

Rule to be followed,

A"(x, y) → A'(-x, y)

A"(2, 4) → A'(-2, 4)

Therefore, by combining these rules in this glide reflections of point A we get the coordinates of the point point A'.

Option (3) will be the answer.
