Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>According to triangle similarity, corresponding sides have equal ratios.</u>
<u>Convert the ratio as below:</u>
- (AD - MD)/AD = AN/(AN + NG)
- (42 - 27)/42 = 20/(20 + 3x + 3)
<u>Simplify and solve for x:</u>
- 15/42 = 20/(3x + 23)
- 5/14 = 20/(3x + 23)
- 1/14 = 4/(3x + 23)
- 3x + 23 = 4*14
- 3x + 23 = 56
- 3x = 33
- x = 11
Answer: 4.1 cups of flour
Step-by-step explanation: Each cookie contains 0.125 of flour. If Megan wants 2.75 times as many cookies as the recipe calls for she would have to make 33 cookies. 0.125 x 33 = 4.1 CUPS OF FLOUR.

If we have 2+1/4 for a batch and want 2/3rds of that, we multiply (2+1/4) by 1/3 to get 2/3+1/12 (we can just multiply the denominator by 3 to divide by 1/3) = 8/12+1/12=9/12=3/4 ( we get 8/12 by figuring out that 12/3 =4 so we multiply 2/3 by 4/4). Since we need 2/3rds, we then multiply 3/4 by 2 to get 6/3 or 3/2.
This would be an angle bisector!
hope this helped :)
