Given that the triangles are similar.
When triangles are similar, all three pairs of corresponding sides are in the same ratio.
Similarly in the given triangles, the ratio of the corresponding sides are equal.
Cross multiplying, we get
Dividing both sides of the equation by -4.
So, we get
x = 7.
Answer:2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Subtract 8 from both sides.
17n+8−8=76−8
17n=68
Step 2: Divide both sides by 17.
17n/17
68/17
Answer:4
Let h = the number of horses in the field
Let c = number of cows in the field
There are 2 more horses than cows in the field. Therefore
h = c + 2
or
c = h - 2 (1)
There are 15 animals in the field. Therefore
h + c = 15 (2)
Substitute (1) into (2).
h + (h - 2) = 15
2h - 2 = 15
Answer:
The correct equation is
2h - 2 = 15
The sides of a triangle must satisfy the triangle inequality, which states the sum of the lengths of any two sides is strictly greater than the length of the remaining side.
We really only have to check if the sum of the two smaller sides exceeds the largest side.
A. 5+6>7, ok
B. 6+6>10, ok
C. 7+7=14 Not ok, this is a degenerate triangle not a real triangle
D. 4+6>8 ok
