24 is the correct answer because the question is about triangle similarity so if you divide 15 by 3 then you get 5 which is the base of the smaller triangle.
Answer:
d(m) = (1.05 miles/min)*m
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 2 5/8 miles by 3 1/2 minutes to obtain the unit rate (miles per minute):
2 5/8 miles
--------------------
3 1/2 minutes
First, convert 2 5/8 miles and 3 1/2 minutes to improper fractions:
21/8 miles 21/8 miles
------------------ = ---------------------- = 21/20 miles/minute
5/2 minutes 20/8 minutes
The constant rate is (21/20) miles/minute, or 1.05 miles/minute.
Thus, the equation representing the distance, d, that the car travels in m minutes is
d(m) = (1.05 miles/min)*m
Answer:
simplify: 2.5 =(y+5)
reorder the terms: 2.5y=(5+y)
remove the parenthesis: 2.5y=5+y
solving: 2.5y=5+y
move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.
add -1y to each side of the equation
2.5y+-1y=5+y+-1y
combine like terms 2.5y+-1y=1.5y
1.5y=5+y+-1y
combine like terms: y+-1y=0
1.5y=5+0
1.5y=5
divide each side by 1.5
y=3.333333333
simplifying
y=3.333333333
