Answer: x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute 17 for n(x)
17=2x+7
Subtract 7 from both sides
10=2x
Divide each side by 2 to get the x by itself
x=5
Answer: 1/3
Explanation:
1/12 of the squad are suspended:
1/12 x 24 = 24/12 = 2
So 2 player are suspended
24 - 2 = 22 player
And some are injured leaving 14 left to play:
22 - 14 = 8 players injured
So 8/24 is the fraction of injured player.
But 8/24 = 1/3 so we can say 1/3 of the whole squad are injured.
Answer:
13. 108 inches
14. not similar (sides have different ratios)
15. 68
Step-by-step explanation:
13. You have two relationships between length and width:
2L + 2W = 336 . . . . . the perimeter is 336 inches
L/W = 9/5 . . . . . . . . . .the ratio of length to width is 9/5
Multiplying the second equation by 5/9W, we get
5/9L = W
Now we can substitute that into the first equation to get ...
2L +2(5/9L) = 336
Multiplying by 9 gives us ...
18L +10L = 3024
And dividing by 28 gives ...
3024/28 = L = 108 . . . . inches
___
14. Shortest to longest, the ratios of sides are 6 : 8 : 9 and 2 : 4 : 5. There is no value that will multiply the first ratio to give the second ratio. For example, multiplying by 1/3 gives ...
2 : 2 2/3 : 3 . . . . <u>not</u> 2 : 4 : 5
Similar triangles have the same side ratios. These do not, so they are not similar triangles.

15. MP is a midsegment of triangle JKL and parallel to base JL. A midsegment is half the length of the parallel base. Then JL is twice as long as MP. JL is 68 units long.
