Answer:

x=\frac{27}{2}\:\text{or}\:13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Both triangles are shown are similar. Therefore, the ratio of their sides will be maintained. We can then set up the following proportion:

\frac{2}{11}=\frac{3}{3+x},\\2(3+x)=33,\\(3+x)=16.5,\\x=\boxed{13.5\text{ or }\frac{27}{2}}

Hailey and Kacie are selling candles to raise money. • Hailey is selling candles for $4 each and has already raised $160. • Kaci
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The number of candles each girl needs to sell so that the total amount raised is the same for both is

<em>Hailey </em>70 candles

<em>Kacie  </em>40 candles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> the number of candles sold

y----> total amount raised          

we know that

<em>Hailey's equation</em>

y=4x+160 -----> equation A

Please note that Hailey has already raised $160, so he has sold 40 candles.

<em>Kacie's equation</em>

y=7x+70 -----> equation B

Please note that Kacie has already raised $70, so he has sold 10 candles.

equate equation A and equation B solve for x

4x+160=7x+70

7x-4x=160-70

3x=90

x=30\ candles

The number of candles each girl needs to sell so that the total amount raised is the same for both is

<em>Hailey</em>

  40+30=70 candles

<em>Kacie</em>

  10+30=40 candles

A player moves a knight from location (3, 2) to (5, 1) on a chessboard. If the bottom-left square is labeled (1, 1), which descr
ASHA 777 [7]
First we have to note which number represents which axis. As a general rule x axis represents first number. It describes if figure is moving left or right.

Second number is y axis and it describes if figure is moving up or down.

Now that we said that we can see that x axis increased by 2 while y axis decreased by 1. Description that matches is:

1 square down and 2 squares right.

If A(2, x) , B(x, 8) and AB = 3√2 cm, then x = ?
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

x =5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for calculating the distance between two points

D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

Given the points A(2, x) , B(x, 8) and AB = 3√2

On substituting the given values into the formula;

AB = √(x-2)²+(8-x)²

3√2= √(x-2)²+(8-x)²

square both sides

(3√2)²= (x-2)²+(8-x)²

18 = (x-2)²+(8-x)²

expand

18 = x²-4x+4+64-16x+x²

18 = 2x²-20x+68

2x²-20x+68-18 = 0

2x²-20x+50 = 0

x²-10x+25 = 0

Factorize

x²-5x-5x+16 = 0

x(x-5)-5(x-5) = 0

(x-5)(x-5) = 0

x-5 = 0 an x-5 = 0

x = 5

<12 would be A (51 degrees) because 2 and 10 are corresponding angles and there are 180 degrees on a straight line!
Hope this helps :)
