Answer:
<h2>1. x = 4</h2><h2>2. x = 20</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
ΔABC and ΔAJK are similar (AA). Therefore the sides are in proportion:

We have:
AC = 1 + 4 = 5
AJ = 1
AB = 1 + x
AK = 1
Substitute:

<em>subtract 1 from both sides</em>

2.
ΔVUT and ΔVMN are similar (AA). Therefore the sides are in proportion:

We hve:
VU = x + 8
VM = x
VT = 49
VN = 49 - 14 = 35
Substitute:
<em>cross multiply</em>
<em>use the distributive property a(c + b) = ab + ac</em>
<em>subtract 35x from both sides</em>
<em>divide both sides by 14</em>

Answer:
TW = ST
Step-by-step explanation:
RS = RW (Given)
RT = RT (reflexive property)
This makes ∆RST congruent to ∆RWT based on the reflexive property of congruence.
Therefore, the third corresponding sides, TW and ST would be congruent to each other.
Thus:
TW = ST
Area = length * width for a rectangle or square
Total area = (t+5)(t+3)

First subtract the weight the dog weighs now to the weight he was:
48.9
- 29.7
------------
19.2
Then take the number you got which is the weight the dog gain in total, and divide it by the months the dog gained weight to get the average weight gained each month:
19.2/8 = 2.4
The average weight gain each month was 2.4 pounds.
Hope this helped you!
