You just add all the numbers together:
3 1/8+ 4 1/2+ 4 1/4
=25/8+9/2+17/4
=25/8+36/8+34/8
=95/8
=11 7/8
Ugh.. did you type in the numbers correctly? My guess would be it was meant to be B tho :)
Answer: Michael is 72.
hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Brandon be b. Then Michael is 3g.
3g-18=9(b-18)
3g-18=9g-162
6g=144
b=24
3g=72
The ~ symbol means that the 2 shapes are similar, meaning the same shape but not the same size.
To determine the measure of side length EF, you must find the relationship between the 2 side lengths.
You should set these up as ratios of the length to the width. So, for ABCD, it is 30/45. Make this equal to x/75. If you simplify the first ratio to 2:3, you can then multiply by both numerator and denominator by 25 to get x = 25 in/ 75 in.
Another way is to use cross products with you proportion. 75 x 30 = 45x. Solve for x to get 50 inches.
No, the graph will never reach the x axis because it is an exponential equation, and y = 0 (the x axis) is an undefined asymptote.
