Answer:
50.6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use similar triangles and proportions to solve. Put the smaller triangle side over the larger triangle side.
x 46.2-14 (This is the length of the short side of the triangle)
--------- = -------------
72.6 46.2
Using cross products
46.2 *x = (46.2-14) *72.6
46.2 *x = (32.2) *72.6
46.2 *x = (32.2) *72.6
46.2x =2337.72
Divide each side by 46.2
46.2/46.2 *x = 2337.72/46.2
x = 50.6
2 meters is equal to 200 centimeters
Divide 200 by 10
200/10 = 20cm
Each piece will be 20 cm long
So your answer is A
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = 4 (you and 3 friends)
Ticket cost per head = $5.50
Drink cost per head = $2.50
Popcorn cost per head = $4.00
<em>Expression representing total amount of money spent = $5.50(x) + $2.50(x) + $4.00(x)</em>
<em />
Evaluate the expression by plugging in the value of x = 4
Total amount of money spent = $5.50(4) + $2.50(4) + $4.00(4)
= $22 + $10 + $16 = $48
<em>Total amount of money spent = $48</em>
