x = 11 or any number bigger than 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 7.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
think of it as a triangle; the bold line is the hypotenuse, or x.
8 |\ x
|_\ it's not a good triangle but you get the point
6
and then get out pythagorean theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2
put the numbers in: 8^2 + 6^2 = x^2
do some math:
64+36=x^2
100=x^2 (and then find square root)
10=x
<u>BUT</u>, it said each unit was 3/4 of a mile, so we must multiply 10 by 3/4 to get the actual distance, which is 7.5
Answer:
I disagree with joe.
Step-by-step explanation:
1/8 of a figure is smaller than 1/4. 2/8 of a figure is the same thing as 1/4 though.
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that DE is parallel to AC then DE divides the sides proportionally, so
= 
, substitute values
= 
( cross- multiply )
3x = 2(x + 2) ← distribute
3x = 2x + 4 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
x = 4
