Answer:
4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
∠BAC ~ ∠EDF means that the triangles are similar. So the legs of the triangle share the same proportions, even if the sizes are different.
Since they share the same proportions, the same operations can be performed on each base to find the area.
The answer can be found with the knowledge that the area of a triangle is half of the height * width. You know the width of ∠BAC is 4, and the area is 8, so 16 (the area doubled) / 4 is the height. The width and height of ∠BAC are the same, and since the proportions are also the same, the width and height of ∠EDF are both 3. So the area is the width (3) times the height (3) divided by 2.
3*3 = 9
9/2 = 4.5
So the area is 4.5
Answer:
f(x) = 1/2x
Step-by-step explanation:
When x = -4 the output is -2
We are dividing by 2
When x = -2 the output is -1
f(x) = 1/2 x
Check when x = 2
f(2) = 1/2 (2) =1
Answer:
25 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram shows two triangles that are similar. Similar triangles have equal angles and sides that are proportional to each other. Since the base of each triangle is given, we can find the proportion of the sides:

Given the ratio of the smaller to larger triangle, we can set up a proportion to find the missing height of the larger triangle:
, where 'x' represent the height of the tree
cross-multiply: x = (5)(5) or 25 ft
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I am assuming the tank starts empty. It means that in 1 hour the tank has half that water, or 3600 gallons. And the good thing of lines passing through 0.0 is that the value at 1 IS the slope we need. ie 3600.
At this point it's easy to find that if in 2 hours it filled 1/10th of the tank, in 20 hours the tank will be full.

She must at least score a 38
To get the average you need to add 45 + 32 + 37 together than divide it by the amount of numbers added, in this case 3.
45 + 32 + 37 = 114
114÷3 = 38
