Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, the triangle-sides inequatily, which states that the sum of smaller two sides must be greater the larger side.

Hence there are two situtations, in this case "x" represents the unknown side. For an answer to be valid, at has to satisfy one of these inequalities.

x + 9 > 15; x<15

15 + 9 > x

Ishaan is 3 times as old as Christopher and is also 14 years older than Christopher.how old is christopher?

Sedbober [7]

i = 3c

i = c + 14

set both equations equal to each-other, we can

solve for c, we must.

3c = c + 14

subtract c from both sides, we must.

2c = 14

divide both sides by 2, we must.

c = 7

7 years old, Christopher is.

The ratio of Aziz's money to Osman's money was 2:1 at first. After Aziz spent $10 ratio became 4:3. How much money did each boy

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Aziz's money was $30

Osman's money was $15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> Aziz's money at first

y-----> Osman's money

we know that

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{2}{1}$

$x=2y$ ------> equation A

$\frac{x-10}{y}=\frac{4}{3}$ -----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y

$\frac{2y-10}{y}=\frac{4}{3}\\ \\6y-30=4y\\ \\6y-4y=30\\ \\2y=30\\ \\ y=15$

Find the value of x

$x=2(15)=30$

therefore

At first

Aziz's money was $30

Osman's money was $15

What is the solution set of |–x| = –10?

dem82 [27]

|a| = b gives
a =b or a = -b

so,
|-x| = -10
gives
-x = -10 or -x = 10
x = 10, -10

now let us verify,
when x = 10, |-10| = +10 and it is not = -10
so, x= 10 is NOT a solution.

when x = -10, |-(-10)| = |10| = 10 and it is not = -10
so, x= -10 is NOT a solution.

hence, this equation does not have a solution.

If we know that |...| can never be negative, we can directly deduce that this equation does not have any solution.

Triangle FGH is similar to JKM.

mario62 [17]

Answer: J = 14.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>K is similar to G</em>

So we can find the scale that FHG was dilated by dividing the side length of G by the side length of K

16.56/9.2 = 1.8

So the sides of the triangle KMJ were multiplied by a factor of 1.8

to find m :

25.92/1.8 = 14.4

J = 14.4
