Answer: x = 7
`Step-by-step explanation:
Because the figure shows two triangles that are similar. we can write and solve an equation of ratios:
9 cm 72 cm
----------- = -----------
3x - 20 56 cm
Cross-multiplying, we get (3x - 20)(72 cm) = (9 cm)(56 cm) = 504 cm²
Dividing both sides by 72 cm, we get:
3x - 20 = (504 cm²) / (72 cm) = 7
Then 3x - 20 = 7, and 3x = 27. Then x must be 9.
Answer:
y=5x+21
Step-by-step explanation:
I included the work in the picture. lmk if you need more explaining
145-60=85. That is the answer
Answer: Rate of A: 5/6
Rate of B: 3/5
A has a higher rate of change
Step-by-step explanation: You calculate slope/rate of change by determining the rise over the run. The rate of change in A is 5/6x, this is bigger than the slope of B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let xy = k, where k is the constant of variation.
By using values of x and y in the table,
we see that (2)(48) = (4)(24) = (12)(8) = 96.
Hence k = 96, which is our answer.
