Answer:
x = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of x, create a proportion. A proportion is two equal ratios for similar figures. The two triangles are similar because they are the same shape but not the same size. Create ratios between corresponding sides of figures.
To solve for x, cross multiply:
(x+8)(14) = (10)(2x-5)
14x + 112 = 20x -50
112 = 6x - 50
162 = 6x
27 = x
Part A: 0.10x + 0.25 = 0.80 (dimes are 10 cents or 0.10 dollars, quarters are 0.25 dollars)
Part B: Plug in what you DO know and solve the one you DON’T:
0.10x + 0.25(2) = 0.80
0.10x + 0.50 = 0.80. Subtract 0.50 from both sides:
0.10x = 0.30 (Divide both sides by 0.10)
x = 3
Therefore you have 3 dimes
Answer:
0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
lets say you have half a cake
multiplying a decimal is the same as multiplying its counterpart
basically, you divide half a cake in half
0.25 of a cake, or 1/4
uwu
You put 4 in the X
1/2(4)+5y-10<0
2+5y-10<0
-8+5y<0
5Y<8
Y<8/5
