Answer: Kara should have written the proportion in step 1 as;
Start Fraction 12 Over 72 End Fraction = Start Fraction 14 Over x End Fraction (that is 12/72 = 14/x)
Step-by-step explanation: The two similar triangles are given with the following dimensions;
Triangle VXW with side VW = 12 and side VX = 14. Also Triangle ZXY with side YZ = 72 and side XZ = x.
For two triangles to be similar, then there must be a similarity ration that is consistent with all sides in both triangles. This means if in the first triangle a side measures 1 unit and the similar side in the other triangle measures 5 units, then the ratio of similarity of corresponding sides shall be ratio 1 : 5. So for every corresponding side in the second triangle the measurement shall be times five of the side that corresponds in the first triangle.
Therefore, in triangle VXW and triangle ZXY, the corresponding sides are as follows;
VX = ZX
VW = ZY
XW = XY
What Kara did was as follows;
VX/ZY = VW/ZX
Which translates to 14/72 = 12/x
This was a wrong calculation because the side that corresponds to VX is ZX and not ZY.
The correct step should therefore have been;
VW/ZY = VX/ZX
12/72 = 14/x (Step 1)
12x = (72) (14) {Step 2}
x = 1008/12 (Step 3)
x = 84 (Step 4)
Answer:
1) one
2) zero
Step-by-step explanation:
e/sinE = g/sinG
10/sin64 = 9/sinG
sinG = 0.8089146417
G = 53.99
j/sinJ = k/sinK
3/sin129 = 8/sinK
sinK = 2.072389241

Answer:
<em>Yes, this is a linear function because the rate of change is constant</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Linear Functions</u>
We can recognize a linear relation between variables x and y when they can be represented by a formula like
y=mx+b
Where m is the rate of change and it has a constant value. More specifically, a proportional relationship is a special case where b=0, meaning that every value of y divided by the corresponding value of x, is constant.
The situation described in the question says a bathtub is being filled at a rate of 4 liters per minute. It means that every minute, 4 liters are constantly being added to the existing quantity. This is a constant rate of change, so the correct answer is
"Yes, this is a linear function because the rate of change is constant"
