Answer:
The rectangles are not similar
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to check whether they are similar, we need to take the ratio of their similar sides and ensure they are equal to a constant k.
Hence;
AB/PL = AD/LM = k
32/26 = 18/12 = k
16/13 = 9/6 = k
Since the scale factor is not the same, hence the rectangles are not the same.
10/16=5/8
5+4= 9
9/8
9/8= 1 1/8
1 and 1/8
17 = 3(4x - 5)
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
17 = 12x - 15
<em><u>Add 15 to both sides.</u></em>
32 = 12x
<em><u>Divide both sides by 12.</u></em>
x = 2.67. (This is your answer.)
Let me know if you have any questions.
The answer is C because when you divide it out you get 6
One question at a time, please. I will focus on #16 and ignore #18.
slope: 3/4 line passes thru (-8,2)
Write out y = mx + b. Subst. 2 for y. Subst. -8 for x Subst. (3/4) for m:
2 = (3/4)(-8) + b. Find b. 2 = -6 + b => b = 8
So your equation is y = (3/4)x + 8. Please, use ( ) around those fractions!
