Step-by-step explanation:
because VW || YZ, the 2 triangles are similar.
this is given by the rules of equal angles of intersecting lines with parallel lines. Z to V and Y to W would be such intersecting lines.
and therefore, the angle at W is the angle at Y, the angle at V is the angle at Z. and therefore both angles at A are equal.
so, for similar triangles the scaling factor between corresponding pairs of sides is the same for all sides.
e.g. the same scaling factor that converts 7.2 to 12, converts then also x to x+4.
7.2 × f = 12
f = 12/7.2 = 12/ 72/10 = 120/72 = 10/6 = 5/3
x × 5/3 = x + 4
5x = 3x + 12
2x = 12
x = 6
A to Y = x = 6
W to A = x + 4 = 6 + 4 = 10
Answer:
1 year= $280
Step-by-step explanation:
30% of 400= 0.3 * 400= 120
400-120= 280
after one year the playstation cost 280
30% of 280= 0.3 * 280= 84
280-84= 196
after 2 years it cost $196
multiply the number by 0.3 to get 30% of the total
Answer:
to find the answer for 1 pencil you just need to divide
Step-by-step explanation:
3.20$ divide by 4=0.8 /each pencil cost 0.8
4.80$ divide by 12=0.4 /each pencil cost 0.4
