Answer:

22 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

A towing company charges $50 plus $4 per mile

let the number of miles be x

the expression for the charges for x miles y is given as

y= 50+4x

for y= 138

138= 50+4x

138-50= 4x

88= 4x

x= 88/4

x= 22 miles

Hence the distance is 22 miles

I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST PLEASE HELP !! Determine whether the two triangles are similar.
soldi70 [24.7K]

The two triangles are similar by SSA similarity. Option B is correct.

<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>

A triangle is a three-sided polygon. It is one of the most fundamental geometric forms.

If the ratio of the sides are same as well as the one angle is common between the two triangles then in that condition there will be SSA similarity.

From the triangle ABC and DEC

The ratio of the sides is;

\rm  \frac{10}{12}= \frac{8}{9.6} \\\\ \frac{5}{6}= \frac{5}{6}

One angle c is common in the two triangles.

The two triangles are similar by SSA similarity.

Hence, option B is correct.

Lena is converting 2/25 to a percent. What should she multiply the numerator and denominator of the fraction by to find the perc
NNADVOKAT [17]
A percent is a number out of 100, so you'd want to multiply the denominator to get 100. In this case, 25 would have to be multiplied by 4 to get 100. To keep the fractions equal to each other, you have to multiply the numerator by the same thing. 2*4=8. Therefore, your fraction would be 8/100 or 8%
