Answer:

3. PR=51

4. FE=28

Step-by-step explanation:

3. since the two triangles are similar, set up a proportion:

x+8/3x-9=24/28

*cross multiply*:

28(x+8)=24(3x-9)

28x+224=72x-216

44x=440

x=20

to find PR:

PR=3x-9

PR=3(20)-9

PR=51

4. same here:

39/4x+2=42/5x-2

39(5x-2)=42(4x+2)

195x-78=168x+84

27x=162

x=6

to find FE:

FE=5x-2

FE=5(6)-2

FE=28

Kiran read for x minutes, and Andre read for 58 more than that. Write an equation that relates the number of minutes Kiran read

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

$0.017y=0.017x+0.97$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that,

number of minutes read by Kiran is = x minutes.

number of minutes read by Andre is = y minutes.

Andre read for 58 minute more than that of Kiran.

Converting minute to hour we get,

$x\text{ minutes}=\dfrac{x}{60}=0.017x\text{ hour}$

$y\text{ minutes}=\dfrac{y}{60}=0.017y\text{ hour}$

$58\text{ minutes}=\dfrac{58}{60}=0.97\text{ hour}$

So the relationship between x and y will be,

$0.017y=0.017x+0.97$
