The angles in the triangles are the same, so you know the triangles are similar. Sides PQ and AB correspond as do sides PR and AC. Because the triangles are similar, you know that
PR/AC = PQ/AB
PR/24 = 5/20
Multiplying this equation by 24 gives
PR = 24*(5/20) = 6
The appropriate choice is ...

Answer:
(0, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
In slope intercept form, the y-intercept is the "b" or, in an example:
y = mx + b
- m is the slope
- b is the y-intercept
In our first equation, the b is 0 (y=-3/2x, there is no +/- b, so it is 0). If we add positive 3 (up 3 units) then the y-intercept will be 3. This, in a point, is shown with (0, 3) because the y-intercept is where the line hits the y-axis when x is 0.
Have a nice day!

Answer:
probability that Shaun loses both games
Step-by-step explanation:
Games are independent, so we find each separate probability, and multiply them.
In a chess club the probability that Shaun will beat Mike is 3/8.
So 
probability that Shaun loses.
The probability that Shaun will beat Tim is 5/7 .
So 
probability that Shaun loses.
What is the probability that Shaun loses both games?
This is:
probability that Shaun loses both games
