Answer:
464 or 460
Step-by-step explanation:
464 is the actual answer but if you were to estimate I would go with 460
Given that we assume that all the bases of the triangles are parallel.
We can use AAA or Angle-Angle-Angle to prove that these triangles are similar.
Each parallel line creates the same angle when intersecting with the same side.
For example:
The bases of each triangle cross the left side of all the triangle.
Each angle made by the intersecting of the the parallel base and the side are the same.
Thus, each corresponding angle of all the triangles are congruent.
If these angles are congruent, then we have similar triangles.
The correct answer is B. Two out of every five people in the shopping center are in the clothing store.
Step-by-step explanation:
To establish this answer we have to know the total number of people that were in the Shopping Center. So, we have to add people from every store.
48+96+20+64+12=240
The result of this operation is 240 people.
Later we have to divide the total number in 5 and multiply by 2.
So, the operation is
240/5 = 48
48x2=96
According to the above, the correct answer is B. Two out of every five people in the shopping center are in the clothing store.
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 3 = -x + 7
Add x to each side
x+x + 3 = -x+x + 7
2x+3 = 7
Subtract 3 from each side
2x = 7-3
2x = 4
Divide by 2
2x/2 = 4/2
x = 2
Answer:
6.75 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is of direct variation. We will use x as our answer. 8 is 2/3 of 12, so 4.5 should be 2/3 of x. We can now make an equation.
In order to solve the equation, we multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3, which is 3/2.
* stands for multiplication
From solving our equation, we get 6.75. We can't forget the units, so the answer is 6.75 pounds.
