Answer:
Your answer is: There is a mistake in Beth's answer the mistake was that she multiplied the area of the original triangle by the scale factor.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helped : )
1. divide all sides by 24 to save time.
37=21-20x
2. subtract 21 this both sides
16= -20x
3. divide both sides by -20
-16/20 = x
4. reduce to its lowest terms
-4/5= x is the answer
Answer:
y = -2x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the equation if the line be y = mx + c
since the line is parallel to y = -2x - 8, their gradients/slope must be the same (aka m = -2)
sub (-4, 3):
3 = -2(-4) + c
c = -5
therefore, the equation of the line is y = -2x - 5

Answer: 210
percent * base = amount
.6 * base = 126
base = 126/.6
x = 210
