How do I solve this, it's not 10

Mathematics

Answer:

26.7

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because 26.7/20 = (16+26.7)/32

When two triangles are similar, it means their sides are also proportional. The reason why it is not ten is because you need to add 10 to 16 to the large triangle as well, which no longer makes it proportional.

To solve, you create a formula.

(16+x)/32=x/20

Multiply both sides by 32 to get rid of the 32 in the left side.

16+x=32x/20

Multiply both sides by 20 to get rid of the 20 right side.

320+20x=32x

-20x on both sides to get all the variables on one side and all the nukbers on the other.

320=12x

Divide both sides by 12 to get x by itself

x=26.66667

I found the image that accompanied this problem.
We need to solve for the area of the sector.

A = n/360 * π * r²
A = 85/360 * 3.14 * 5²
A = 0.2361 * 3.14 * 25
A = 18.5347 

Answer is C. 18.5 square meters.

Okay. so, to find the answer for this, you should set the equation as 10.25x = 8,425. "x" equals the number of hours. What you should do is divide each side by 10.25 to isolate the "x". When you do that 8,425/10.25, you get 821.951 and other numbers or 822 hours when rounded to the nearest whole number. x is approximately 822. You would have to work about 822 hours to earn $8,425.
