Use a proportion to find the length of side x for the pair of similar figures

Mathematics
1 answer:
kogti [31]2 years ago

Answer:

30.8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Write the ratio for the smaller triangle as 14/10 and the ratio for the larger triangle as x/22.

2. Set the ratios equal to each other.

14/10 = x/22

3. Cross multiply and solve for x.

14 x 22 = 308

10 x x = 10x

4. Divide by 10

x = 30.8

write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of -3 and contains the point (4, -5).
Novosadov [1.4K]
You can answer this question by plugging the given values into point-slope form, which is y - y_{1} = m (x - x_{1}). M will represent slope and x_{1} and y_{1} will represent the x and y coordinates.

   y - y_{1} = m (x - x_{1})   Substitute in the values
y - (-5) = 4 (m - 4)   Cancel out the -(-5)
   y + 5 = 4 (m - 4)   Use the Distributive Property
   y + 5 = 4m - 16    Subtract 5 from both sides
       
         y = 4m - 21

Miguel and Kat are reading the same book. Miguel reads 5 times as many
n200080 [17]

Answer:

k=\dfrac{m}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Kat reads k pages of the book.

Miguel reads 5 times as many  pages of the book as Kat. So,

m = 5k ...(1)

Together they read 54 pages. i.e.

m+k = 54 ...(2)

From equation (1),

k=\dfrac{m}5{}

Hence, the equation that can be used to find how many pages Kat read is equal to \dfrac{m}{5}.

Identify the ordered pair that represents the vector from A(-8,-1) to B(-5,3) and the magnitude of vector AB.
wel
In order to find the vector that points from A to B we need to subtract each component of A from the corresponding component of B, according to the formula: v(a→b)=(b1−a1,b2−a2) In this case we have : v(a→b)=(−5−(−8),3−(−1)) <span>v(a→b)=(3,4)

</span>To find the magnitude we use the formula: ||v|=  √(v1^2)+(v1^2)

So:
||v|= √(32)+(42) ||v|=  √9+16 ||v|= <span>√</span>25  ||v|= 5

Y=arccos(1/x)<br><br> Please help me do them all! I don’t know derivatives :(
Stells [14]

Answer:

f(x) =  {sec}^{ - 1} x \\ let \: y = {sec}^{ - 1} x  \rightarrow \: x = sec \: y\\  \frac{dx}{dx}  =  \frac{d(sec \: y)}{dx}  \\ 1 = \frac{d(sec \: y)}{dx} \times  \frac{dy}{dy}  \\ 1 = \frac{d(sec \: y)}{dy} \times  \frac{dy}{dx}  \\1 = tan \: y.sec \: y. \frac{dy}{dx}  \\ \frac{dy}{dx} =  \frac{1}{tan \: y.sec \: y}  \\ \frac{dy}{dx} =  \frac{1}{ \sqrt{( {sec}^{2}   \: y - 1}) .sec \: y}  \\ \frac{dy}{dx} =  \frac{1}{ |x |  \sqrt{ {x }^{2}  - 1} } \\   \therefore  \frac{d( {sec}^{ - 1}x) }{dx}  =  \frac{1}{ |x |  \sqrt{ {x }^{2}  - 1} } \\ \frac{d( {sec}^{ - 1}5x) }{dx}  =  \frac{1}{ |5x |  \sqrt{25 {x }^{2}  - 1} }\\\\y=arccos(\frac{1}{x})\Rightarrow cosy=\frac{1}{x}\\x=secy\Rightarrow y=arcsecx\\\therefore \frac{d( {sec}^{ - 1}x) }{dx}  =  \frac{1}{ |x |  \sqrt{ {x }^{2}  - 1} }

Find the measure of angle A
Westkost [7]

Answer:

35 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of angles inside a triangle is 180 degrees.

Right angle is 90 degrees.

180 = 90 + (x + 46) + (x + 66) = 2x + 202

x = -11

A = x + 46 = -11 + 46 = 35
