Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Two figures can only be similar if their corresponding lengths are proportional to each other, that is the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal.

AB corresponds to HI.

AB = 2 units, HI = 1 units.

AB : HI = 2/1 = 2

The ratio of all the sides of ABCDEFG are equal to the corresponding sides of HIJKLMN, which is 2, EXCEPT for side FG which corresponds to MN.

FG = 1 units

MN = 1 units.

FG : MN = 1/1 = 1

This ratio is different from what we have for the ratio of the other corresponding sides of both figures.

Therefore, the figures are not similar.

Belinda bought a car one year ago.
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

$16,500

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the amount that should be paid for the car is shown below:

Since the car would be purchased one year ago

And, the value of the car would be decreased by 15% to $14025

So the amount that should be paid is

= $14025 × 100 ÷ (100 - 0.15)

= $16,500

Find the y-intercept for the graph of the following equation. 6x + 9y = 18
DiKsa [7]
Recall that the y-intercept is when the function passes the y-axis. This happens when x=0. Therefore, we can find our y-intercept by plugging x=0 into our function and solving for y.

6x + 9y = 18
6(0) + 9y = 18
0 + 9y = 18
9y = 18
y =2

Thus, our y-intercept is when x = 0 and y = 2, or (0,2).
