HELP ME PLEASE!!!! ΔAXY ~ ΔABC. What is the value of BC

Mathematics
1 answer:
emmasim [6.3K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

BC = 28 \frac{1}{3} ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{AX}{AB} = \frac{XY}{BC} , substitute values

\frac{12}{20} = \frac{17}{BC} ( cross- multiply )

12BC = 340 ( divide both sides by 12 )

BC = \frac{340}{12} = \frac{85}{3} = 28 \frac{1}{3}

Write the equation of the line parallel to 2x - 6y = 12 that passes through the point ( -1, 4).​
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

y = 1/3x + 4 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 6y = 12

First find the slope

Solve for y

Subtract 2x

2x - 6y -2x= 12-2x

-6y = -2x+12

Divide by -6

-6y/-6 =-2x/-6 +12/-6

y = 1/3 x -2

The slope is 1/3

Parallel lines have the same slope

Using the slope intercept form y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 1/3x +b

And substituting in the point

4 = 1/3 (-1) +b

4 = -1/3 +b

Add 1/3 to each side

4 + 1/3 = b

y = 1/3x + 4 1/3
