Answer:

x = 8.57

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Hi! So first of all, I attached an image that has my best visual explanation of how the 2 triangles overlap but are indeed two separate triangles! </em>

Since the question states that the triangles are similar, that basically means in simple terms that their sides are proportional or, are all based on the same fraction (proportion)! (An example of this is the triangles with the sides that correlate [in this problem, 11 to 7] would be 1 to 2, 3 to 6, and 4 to 8)

Now, we have to figure out which of our sides correspond, the first one being 11 to 7, and the second one being x + 15 (which I got by adding the small portion I have from the big triangle, and the portion I have from the smaller triangle together because the small triangle is inside of the big one!) to 15.

Next, I have to find out what x is based on the fraction (proportion) I already have which is 11 to 7 or \frac{11}{7}. Then, I compare this by setting this proportion equal to are other proportion with x in it!

\frac{11}{7} = \frac{x+15}{15}

Finally, I have to get x by itself to find what it is equal to, which you can see in the image! (If you have a number in the denominator and a variable in the numerator, and a regular number or fraction without a variable on the other side, you can just multiply both sides by the number in the denominator to cancel out the bottom of said variable fraction!)

<em>So! X is equal to 8.57!</em>

<em></em>

Hope this Helps! :)

Inverse equation t=120r/r+120 R=???
Komok [63]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  r = 120t/(120-t)

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply by the denominator, isolate r terms, then divide by the coefficient of r.

  t=\dfrac{120r}{r+120}\qquad\text{given}\\\\t(r+120)=120r\qquad\text{multiply by $(r+120)$}\\\\120t=120r-tr\qquad\text{subtract $tr$}\\\\\dfrac{120t}{120-t}=r\qquad\text{divide by the coefficient of $r$}\\\\\boxed{r=\dfrac{120t}{120-t}}

Suppose about 900,000 people live in an area of 1,800 square miles. What is the best estimate for the population density?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The Population Density is 500\ People/mi^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total number of People = 900,000

Total Land Area = 1800 sq. mi.

Solution,

For calculating the population density, we have to divide the total number of people by the area of the land.

This can be framed in equation form'

Population\ Density=\frac{Total\ Number\ of\ People}{Land\ Area}

Now putting the given values, we get;

Population\ Density=\frac{900,000}{1800\ mi^2}=500\ People/mi^2

Hence The Population Density is 500\ People/mi^2.

What is the point of intersection when the system of equations below is graphed on the coordinate plane?
lesantik [10]
Multiply the first equation by -2 gives:_
-2y = -8 + 2x

2y = 8 - 2x

adding these 2 equations:-

0 = 0

This shows that the 2 equations are  equal so there are infinite solutions
