Answer:

13√2

Step-by-step explanation:

The areas of the larger triangle, and the smaller triangle (formed when the larger triangle was cut by the parallel line) are similar. Therefore we can compare their areas:

Area1/Area2 =  (Length1)^2/(Length2)^2,

x/2x = (Length1)^2/(26)^2,

1/2 = (Length1)^2/676,

(Length1)^2 = 676/2 = 338

Length1 = √1352 = 13√2

It takes 45 minutes to drive to the nearest bowling alley taking city streets going
Savatey [412]

Answer:

21 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Taking CITY STREET:

Time taken to drive to nearest bowling alley = 45 minutes = 45/60 = 0.75 hours

Speed of travel = 30 miles per hour

Taking FREEWAY:

speed of travel = 65miles per hour

If the distance to bowling alley is the same along both routes, The time taken along FREEWAY will be :

.

Distance to bowling alley taking city center :

Speed = distance / time

30 mph = distance / 0.75 hour

Distance = 30 × 0. 75 = 22.5 miles

Since distance is the same :

Time taken along FREEWAY :

Time taken = distance / speed

Time taken = 22.5 / 65 = 0.3461538 hour

Converting to minutes :

0.3461538 × 60 = 20.769 minutes

= 21 minutes ( to the nearest minute)
