Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You are to assume in both problems that the two triangles are similar. That is a very dangerous assumption -- especially in later math classes. But in this case, there is no other way to do the problem. The two sets of triangles look like they are proportional. So set up two ratios that are = to each other
On the left
long side small triange / long side large triangle = base small triangle / base large triangle
On the right
hypotenuse/longest leg = hypotenuse / longest leg.
Problem A
Set up the similar Proportion
5/40 = x/20 Cross Multiply
40x = 20*5
40x = 100 Divide by 40
x = 100/40
x = 2.5
Problem B
Again set up the similar triangle proportion
15/10 = x/2 Multiply by 2
15*2/10 = x
3 = x
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
7c =
7(0) = 0
hope you understand
Answer:
No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
from the second equation x = -8 + 2y
By substituting in the first equation 4(-8 + 2y) -8y = -16
-32 +8y -8y = -16
-32 = -16
the left hand side not equal the write and side
So there is no solution for the system of equations
means the two lines are parallel
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5y plus 2y = 7y 6+2 = 8
Well, Brainly really doesn't like questions that are lifted straight out of exams, tests, or quizzes, so there's only so much I can say.
... You've GOT the formula for the height h at any time t .
... It TELLS you to find t when h=0.
... So write the equation
-16 t^2 + 32 t = 0
and then solve the equation to find t .
You'll find two solutions for t .
One of them is. t=0 .
This reveals the mind-blowing fact that the instant before the rocket was launched, at t=0, the rocket was on the ground.
The other solution for t will tell you how many seconds after launch the rocket is back on the ground.
