Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that the triangles are similar.

$\frac{16}{12} = \frac{24}{18} = \frac{x}{24}$

$\frac{x}{24} = \frac{4}{3} => x = \frac{24}{3} * 4= 8 * 4 = 32$

Write the slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and intersects the line, 2X - 3Y = 6 at X = 3

Shtirlitz [24]

so these two lines intersect at x = 3 hmmmm what's the y-coordinate of the second line at that point?

$\bf 2x-3y=6\implies \stackrel{\textit{using x = 3}}{2(3)-3y=6}\implies 6-3y=6\implies -3y=0\implies y=0$

so the y-coordinate of that second line is 0, so the point there is (3, 0) then.

so the first line is, a line that has a slope of 2 and passes through (3, 0).

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies 2 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-0=2(x-3)\implies y=2x-6$

Which of the following describes the correct process for solving the equation 2x + 6 =22 and arrives at the correct solution

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with 2x+6=22

You subtract 6 from each side of the equation:

2x=16

You want to isolate the "x" so you divide each side by 2.

x = 8

check your answer: 2x + 6 = 22

2(8) + 6 = 22

16 + 6 = 22

Does parallel lines meet to form an acute angle??

tia_tia [17]

No bc parallel means they don’t touch, so they wouldn’t meet to form and acute angle
