Given Info: "The dashed triangle is the image of the solid triangle"
So the "before" is the large solid triangle and the "after" is the smaller dashed triangle.
The horizontal side of the solid triangle is 15 units. The corresponding side for the dashed triangle is 3 units. Dividing the two values gives: 3/15 = 1/5 = 0.2
Make this value negative. The reason why is due to the fact that we have a sort of reflection going on as we're scaling down the figure.
So the final answer is -0.2
Answer: 0.395 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Martin distance from the hole be X
On first stroke, his golf ball traveled 4/5 of the distance to the hole. That is 4/5 X
On his second stroke, the ball traveled 79 meters and went into the hole
Total distance covered will be
X = 79 + 4/5X
X - 4/5X = 79
X - 0.8X = 79
0.2X = 79
X = 79/0.2 = 395 meters
How many kilometers from the hole was Martin when he started
X = 395/1000 = 0.395 km
Answer:
2=x
Step-by-step explanation:
8(4-x)=7x+2
Distribute
32 - 8x = 7x+2
Add 8x to each side
32 - 8x+8x = 7x+8x+2
32 = 15x+2
Subtract 2 from each side
32-2 = 15x+2-2
30 = 15x
Divide each side by 15
30/15 = 15x/15
2 =x
Use the formula (
)^2
in order to create a new term to complete the square.
(x−5)2−25
