The answer would be 24 because 124 divided by 5 is 24.8 but if you round it out of all the inches of red ribbon she can make 24
Answer:
Let X represent Nick's age and Y represent Sara's age.
Then, it is given that: Nick is four years older than Sara.
We write the statement as:
or 
The only ordered pairs (X,Y) which satisfy the equation are: (0,-4) and (4,0) as you can see in the graph also.
In the graph X axis represents the age of Nick's age and Y-axis represent the age of Sara's age and the line Y=X-4 represents the relationship between the age of both.
Seventeen-thousand and one hundred 6 thousandths written in standard form would be 17,000.106
Hope this helped =)
21x+1+14x+4=180
35x+5=180
35x=175
X=5
21(5)+1
105+1
Answer
Answer: Kara should have written the proportion in step 1 as;
Start Fraction 12 Over 72 End Fraction = Start Fraction 14 Over x End Fraction (that is 12/72 = 14/x)
Step-by-step explanation: The two similar triangles are given with the following dimensions;
Triangle VXW with side VW = 12 and side VX = 14. Also Triangle ZXY with side YZ = 72 and side XZ = x.
For two triangles to be similar, then there must be a similarity ration that is consistent with all sides in both triangles. This means if in the first triangle a side measures 1 unit and the similar side in the other triangle measures 5 units, then the ratio of similarity of corresponding sides shall be ratio 1 : 5. So for every corresponding side in the second triangle the measurement shall be times five of the side that corresponds in the first triangle.
Therefore, in triangle VXW and triangle ZXY, the corresponding sides are as follows;
VX = ZX
VW = ZY
XW = XY
What Kara did was as follows;
VX/ZY = VW/ZX
Which translates to 14/72 = 12/x
This was a wrong calculation because the side that corresponds to VX is ZX and not ZY.
The correct step should therefore have been;
VW/ZY = VX/ZX
12/72 = 14/x (Step 1)
12x = (72) (14) {Step 2}
x = 1008/12 (Step 3)
x = 84 (Step 4)
