Check the picture below.
the ladder is 26ft, the roof is 24ft above, so the ladderis 2ft longer than needed, if you move the ladder 10 feet away, will it give 24 or more? well, you know already.
Set up an equation:
3x - x = 28
Simplify:
2x = 28
Divide both sides by 2
X = 14
3(14) = 42
The numbers are 42 and 14
G(x) is a translation of f(x) 5 units up
Giving us g(x)=f(x)+5
So k=5

Answer:
a) yes; 12/15/17 ~ 20/25/x; SAS
b) x = 28 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The left-side segments are in the ratio ...
top : bottom = 12 : 8 = 3 : 2
The right side segments are in the ratio ...
top : bottom = 15 : 10 = 3 : 2
These are the same ratio, and the angle at the peak is the same in both triangles, so the triangles are similar by the SAS postulate.
Normally, a similarity statement would identify the triangles by the labels on their vertices. Here, there are no such labels, so we choose to write the statement in terms of the side lengths, shortest to longest:
12/15/17 ~ 20/25/x
__
The sides of similar triangles are proportional, so the ratio of longest to shortest sides will be the same in the two triangles. In the smaller triangle, the longest side is 17/12 times the length of the shortest side. The value of x will be 17/12 times the length of the shortest side in the larger triangle:
x = 17/12 · 20 = 340/12
x = 28 1/3
Answer:
A. The #1 Seed
Step-by-step explanation
To find the answer you find the rate of one apple tree to # of apples. you do this by dividing the # of apples from the orchard by the apple trees and whichever has the highest rate of Apples to Trees is the answer which would be The #1 Seed.
