Answer: 54
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar, the sides form s equalivent proportion. The hypotunse of the bigger triangle and the smaller triangles correspond with each other and the base of the smaller and larger triangle correspond so we use this proportion: hypo. of big triangle/ base of larger triangle= hypo of smaller triangle/ base of smaller triangle.
Let substitue: 52.5/x= 5/4: ( I Reduce 15/12 into 5/4).Cross multiply: 210=5x: Divide by 5 both sides. x=42. Then add the 42 and and the 12 to find the whole distance which is 54.
W = L - 15
WL = 76
(L-15)L = 76
L^2 - 15L - 76 = 0
(L-19)(L+4) = 0
L = 19 or -4
Since a length cannot be negative, the length must be 19 units.
The width is 19-15=4 units.
Answer: Q1=20 Q2=39
Step-by-step explanation:
For question one all you have to do is multiply 20x35x8 giving you 5600. For question two just multiply 39x7x8 giving you 2184. Beat of luck.
Hey There!
Let's setup.
5x+13 = 12x-8
Subtract 5 as it is lower.
12x - 5x =7x
We now have 7x-8=13
Add 8 on both sides.
13 + 8 = 21
We now have 7x = 21
Divide 7 from both sides.
21/7= 3
Therefore, x would equal to 3.
Hope this helped!
