(A) Bella's TV ratio of sides: 36"/27" = 1.333...
Lenny's: 52"/29.25" = 1.777...
Bella's and Lenny's TVs are NOT similar - their side ratios are different. Bella's is 4:3 while Lenny's is close to 16:9.
(B) Bella's TV has an exact ratio of 4:3 (36/27=4/3) and so is the older type.
Lenny's TV has a ratio of 52"/29.25". Divide both 52 and 29.25 by 3.25 to get 16/9, or 16:9. So Lenny's is the newer type.
(-3,-5)(2,4)
slope(m) = (4 - (-5) / (2 - (-3) = (4 + 5) / (2 + 3) = 9/5
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 9/5
(2,4)...x1 = 2 and y1 = 4
sub
y - 4 = 9/5(x - 1)....this is the correct answer
the student figured the slope wrong....it is 9/5...not -9/5
My final answer is (C) because for the side lenghts to be a right triangle, the values of the first and second terms should be equal to the third (a^2 and b^2 =c^2) hope that helped (:
Answer:
y = 56
Step-by-step explanation:
the midsegment SV is half the length of the side TU , that is
y - 9 = 
(y + 38) ← multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction
2y - 18 = y + 38 ( subtract y from both sides )
y - 18 = 38 ( add 18 to both sides )
y = 56
