We need to look at 2 similar triangles
1) big one: legs - a,b, and hypotenuse - c
2)small one: legs - h,s, and hypotenuse - b.
Corresponding sides:
hypotenuse - c and hypotenuse - b,
big leg - b and big leg - s,
small leg - a, and small leg h.
?(/b(big leg, big triangle)= b(hypotenuse, small triangle )/s (big leg, small triangle)
? should be hypotenuse of the big triangle, c.
Answer is second one c.

Answer:
A. y+8=2(x-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
A line perpendicular to y=-1/2x+11 would have slope +2, which is the negative reciprocal of -1/2.
Starting with the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line, find the y-intercept based upon this new line's passing through (4, -8):
y = mx + b becomes -8 = 2(4) + b. Then b = -16, and the desired new line is
y = 2x - 16.
Eliminate answer choices B and C, because 1/2 is not the correct slope.
Choice A is correct. Note that the result of subbing 4 for x and -8 for y into A: y + 8 = 2(x - 4) is a true equation: -8 + 8 = 2(4 - 4)
Also note that y + 8 = 2(x - 4) can be written in slope-intercept form:
y = -8 + 2x - 8, or y = 2x - 16 (same as obtained earlier)
Answer:
Cost of 1 rose bush = x = $5
Cost of 1 geraniums = y = $2
Step-by-step explanation:
DeShawn and Mike each improved their yards by planting rose bushes and geraniums. They bought their supplies from the same store.
Let us represent:
Cost of 1 rose bush = x
Cost of 1 geraniums = y
DeShawn spent $13 on 1 rose bush and 4 geraniums.
x + 4y = 13..... Equation 1
x = 13 - 4y
Mike spent $56 on 10 rose bushes and 3 geraniums.
10x + 3y = 56....... Equation 2
We substitute 13 - 4y for x in Equation 2
10(13 - 4y) + 3y = 56
130 - 40y + 3y = 56
Collect like terms
- 40y + 3y = 56 - 130
-37y = -74
y = -74/37
y = $2
Solving for x
x = 13 - 4y
x = _13 - 4 × $2
x = $13 - $8
x = $5
Therefore,
Cost of 1 rose bush = x = $5
Cost of 1 geraniums = y = $2
