Find the value of x so that FED ~ZYZ need help asap

Mathematics

Paul [167]3 years ago

Answer:

x=7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To show that the triangles are similar, we simply need to show that all sides are proportionate.

So,  we create a proportion

\frac{FE}{ZY} =\frac{ED}{XY} = \frac{FD}{XZ}

Then we plug in the values

\frac{6}{12} = \frac{7}{14}  = \frac{2x-5}{22}

\frac{6}{12} and \frac{7}{14} can be simplified to \frac{1}{2}, so that is our ratio of similarity

then we know

\frac{1}{2} = \frac{2x-5}{22}

Now solve

1. Cross multiply

2×(2x-5) = 22

2. Distribute

4x-8 = 22

4x=30

x=7.5

There is your answer, x=7.5

Hope this helped.

Graph #1: No
Graph #2: Yes
Graph #3: No
Graph #4: No
Graph #5: No
Graph #6: Yes

Reasoning:

The vertical line test is a test that determines wether a graph is a function or a relation. The vertical line test shows that if you construct a vertical line through any point on the graph, then the vertical line should only intercept the graph once for it to be a function.

Please help easy stuff.......
nataly862011 [7]

To evaluate a function at a given input, you have to substitute every occurrence of the variable with that particular value.

So, for the first function, you have

T(x) = -x-2 \implies T(-4) = -(-4)-2 = 4-2 = 2

The name of the variable is obviously irrelelvant, so the same goes for the second function:

w(x) = 14-6x \implies w(-3) = 14-6\cdot(-3) = 14 + 18 = 32

What is 6y - 12 = -3x in standard form?
lakkis [162]
To get it into standard you need to simplify
6y - 12 = -3x add 12 to both sides
6y = -3x + 12 add 3x to both sides
3x + 6y = 12
And that is in standard which is A + B = C
