Answer:

(i) Triangle ABC and triangle ADE are similar triangles. Hence, their ratios will be same.

Ratio of DE to BC is 4:6 => 2:3

To find area, we need to raise the ratio of length to power 2

(2/3)² = 16/x

4/9 = 16/x

x = (16*9)/4

x = 36cm²

Therefore, area of triangle ABC is 36cm²

(ii) Ratio of DE to BC is 4:8 => 1:2

(1/2)² = 25/x

1/4 = 25/x

x = 25*4

x = 100cm²

Therefore, area of triangle ABC is 100cm²

I'm not sure about the third question, sorry

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

The inequality is 5.5n \leq 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Total time:

The total time to complete the test is the sum of the number of multiple-choice questions multiplied by the time it takes to solve each and the number of short-answer questions multiply by the time it takes to solve each.

In this question:

Same number(n) of both.

Multiple-choice takes 2 minutes, short-answer takes 3.5 minutes. The total time is given by:

T = 2n + 3.5n = 5.5n

Write an inequality to determine how many questions, n, the teacher can include if the test must take students less than 45 minutes to complete.?

This means that:

T \leq 45

So

5.5n \leq 45

The inequality is 5.5n \leq 45
