Answer:

NF = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ∆NKF ~ ∆LZF, the ratio of their corresponding side lengths would also be the same.

This means that:

KF/ZF = NF/LF

KF = x + 3

ZF = 4

NF = 15 + x + 3 = x + 18

LF = x + 3

Plug in the values into the equation

(x + 3)/4 = (x + 18)/(x + 3)

Cross multiply

(x + 3)(x + 3) = (x + 18)(4)

x² + 3x + 3x + 9 = 4x + 72

x² + 6x + 9 = 4x + 72

x² + 6x + 9 - 4x - 72 = 0

x² + 2x - 63 = 0

Factorize to find x

x² + 9x - 7x - 63 = 0

x(x + 9) -7(x + 9) = 0

(x + 9)(x - 7) = 0

x + 9 = 0 or x - 7 = 0

x = -9 or x = 7

We'd use the positive value of x, which is 7.

Therefore, x = 7.

✅NF = 15 + (x + 3)

Plug in the value of x

NF = 15 + (7 + 3) = 15 + 10

NF = 25

What effect will replacing x with (x+7) have on the graph of the equation y=x2 y = x 2 ? A. slides the graph 7 units right B. sl
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) then the graph of f(x + a) is a horizontal translation of f(x)

• If a > 0 then a shift to the left of a units

• If a < 0 then a shift to the right of a units

Thus y = (x + 7)²

represents a shift to the left of 7 units → C

How can $500 be divided between four people so that each person gets $20 more than the person before.
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

$95, $115, $135, $155

Step-by-step explanation:

If the first person gets x dollars:

the next person gets 20 more, so x + 20 dollars

the next person gets x + 40 dollars

and the last person gets x + 60 dollars

We add all these allocations together, and we get $500

x + (x + 20) + (x + 40) + (x + 60) = 500

Combine like terms

4x + 120 = 500

Subtract 120 on both sides

4x = 380

Divide by 4 on both sides

x = 95

So the first person gets $95.

The second person must get $115

The third must get $135

And the fourth must get $155

Checking our work:

95 + 115 + 135 + 155 = 500

The sides of a triangle are in the ratio 3 : 4 : 5. What is the length of each side if the perimeter of the triangle is 90 cm
svet-max [94.6K]
The sides of the triangle are 3x, 4x and 5x

3x + 4x + 5x = 90
12x = 90
x = 90/12
x = 7.5

first side = 3x = 3 * 7.5 = 22.5 cm
second side = 4x = 4 * 7.5 = 30 cm
third side = 5x = 5*7.5 = 37.5 cm
