Answer:

x = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides of similar triangles will be in same ratio.

\dfrac{x}{x+18}=\dfrac{20}{28}

Cross multiply

x*28 = 20*(x+18)   {Use distributive method}

28x = 20x + 360

28x - 20x = 360

8x = 360

 x = 360/8

x = 45

the width of a rectangle is x centimetres and its length is (x+ 2) cm. Write down an expression for the perimeter of the rectang
yKpoI14uk [10]

Given:

The width of a rectangle is x centimeters and its length is (x+ 2) cm.

To find:

The expression for the perimeter of the rectangle.

Solution:

We know that, perimeter of a rectangle is

Perimeter=2(Length+Width)

We have,

Width = x cm

Length = (x+2) cm

Putting these values in the above formula, we get

Perimeter=2((x+2)+x)

Perimeter=2(2x+2)

Perimeter=2(2x)+2(2)

Perimeter=4x+4

Therefore, the required expression for the perimeter of the rectangle is (4x+4) cm.

Answer:

JML=142 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

This shape is a rhombus, as all 4 sides are equal, but the angle measures are not. One of the properties of a rhombus is that opposite angles are congruent, and adjacent angles are supplementary. Only the second one is important. Since angles KLM and angle JML are supplementary, the equation KLM+JML=180 can be used. KLM is then substituted by the given angle measure, 38 degrees, to get an equation such as JML+38=180. Now, to solve for JML, 38 must be subtracted from both sides of the equation, which leaves teh answer of JML=142.

Find the slope of the line.
pickupchik [31]
There are several ways to do this.
I'll show you two methods.

1) Pick two points on the line and use the slope formula.
Look for two points that are easy to read. It is best if the points are on grid line intersections. For example, you can see points (-4, -1) and (0, -2) are easy to read.
Now we use the slope formula.

slope = m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Call one point (x1, y1), and call the other point (x2, y2).
Plug in the x1, x2, y1, y2 values in the formula and simplify the fraction.

Let's call point (-4, -1) point (x1, y1).
Then x1 = -4, and y1 = -1.
Let's call point (0, -2) point (x2, y2).
Then x2 = 0, and y2 = -2.

Plug in values into the formula:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (-2 - (-1))/(0 - (-4)) = (-2 + 1)/(0 + 4) = -1/4

The slope is -1/4

2) Pick two points on the graph and use rise over run.
The slope is equal to the rise divided by the run.
Run is how much you go up or down.
Rise is how much you go right or left.

Pick two easy to read points.
We can use the same points we used above, (-4, -1) and (-0, -2).
Start at point (0, -2).
How far up or down do you need to go to get to point (-4, -1)?
Answer: 1 unit up, or +1.
The rise is +1.
Now that we went up 1, how far do you go left or right top go to point (-4, -1)?
Answer: 4 units to the left. Going left is negative, so the run is -4.
Slope = rise/run = +1/-4 = -1/4

As you can see we got the same slope using both methods.
