Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay first set a comparison since the two triangles are similar
x-1/20=x-1+27/3x+8
x-1/20 = x+26/3x+8
cross multiply
20x+520=3x^2+8x-3x-8
3x^2-15x-528=0
3(x^2-5x-176)=0
im kinda lazy to factor this out so i used an online calculator right here but factor it out like a good kid
x=16, x=-11
it has to be positive so x=16
C
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us suppose two years ago my brother's age was x years
Then, my age was 3x
Three years from now, my brother's age will be (x +2+3) = (x+5) years
And my age will be (3x+2+3) = (3x+5) years
But it is given that i will be twice as old as my brother.
So, 2(x+5)= (3x+5)
or, x= 5 years
So my brother's present age is 5+2= 7 years
And my age is 5*3+2= 17 years
Answer: 276 is 300% of 92.
Explanation: 279 is 3x of 92. 92x3 =279 3= 3.00 -> 300%
Hope this helps
Kinetic Energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m), multiplied by the velocity squared.
This would be represented by the equation:
Ek = 1/2*mv^2
X=6 that should be the correct answer
