Set up a proportion to solve for x in the following similar triangles,
12
15
8 X-4
Answers
Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then corresponding sides are in proportion, that is
[tex]\frac{15}{x-4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{8}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )
12(x - 4) = 120 ( divide both sides by 12 )
x - 4 = 10 ( add 4 to both sides )
x = 14

One hose can fill a small swimming pool in 65 minutes. A larger hose can fill the pool in 60 minutes. How long will it take the two hoses to fill the pool working together?
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
1st horse time taken = 65 min/job; invert to get rate = 1/65 job/min
2nd horse time taken = 35 min/job ; invert to get rate = 1/35 job/min
Together Time taken = n min/job ; invert to get rate = 1/n job/min
------------------
Equation :-
Rate + Rate = together rate
1/65 + 1/35 = 1/n
-----------------------------
35n + 65n = 35*65
-----------------
100n = 2275
n = 22.75 minutes = 22 minutes 45 seconds

Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so u can’t divide a decimal with a whole number so u have to move the decimal poin from the 8 twice so it’s on the other side of the 8 and then there shouldn’t be any zeros before the 8 now divide 296 by 8 and instead of leaving the whole number like that u have to add the decimal point to it. So it should look like this 296.00 and then u can divide which is 3,700 hope this helped <3
if 5t=5 then t is what number
Answers
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
5t = 5
divide equation by 5 to get rid of it
t = 1
This is because 5t means "5 times t". The t is a placeholder for a number.
To solve for t, we divide both sides by 5
5t = 5
5t/5 = 5/5
t = 1
Note how 5t = 5 becomes 5*1 = 5 after replacing t with 1. Because 5*1 = 5 is a true statement, this helps confirm we have the correct answer.

Kennedy has a bag that contains strawberry chews, apple chews, and lime chews. She
performs an experiment. Kennedy randomly removes a chew from the bag, records
the result, and returns the chew to the bag. Kennedy performs the experiment 38
times. The results are shown below:
A strawberry chew was selected 18 times.
A apple chew was selected 11 times.
A lime chew was selected 9 times.
Based on these results, express the probability that the next chew Kennedy removes
from the bag will be a flavor other than apple as a decimal to the nearest hundredth.
Answers
Answer:
0.71
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on what we see here, we can deterime the probability of each flavor being drawn.
Apple: 11/38
Strawberry: 18/38
Lime: 9/38
So the probability of an apple NOT being drawn is 27/38. This is about 0.71.

Step-by-step explanation:
So if you are 7 and a half miles away, and you drive 30 miles per hour, you need to take 7.5 and divide it by it by 30 and you get 0.25, you then need to find what is a quarter (0.25) of 60 minutes, and you will find that it is 15 minutes.
So:

You have cup of cocoa in your cupboard. A recipe for cookies calls for 1
cup of cocoa. How much cocoa would you have left if you made the cookies?
Answers
Answer:
None
Step-by-step explanation:
sorry don't know how to delete this
Hi! I'm happy to help!
The recipe calls for 1/4 of a cup of cocoa, and we have 5/6 of a cup.
We use subtraction to solve for the difference:
5/6-1/4
To solve for this, we need to find a common denominator. We do this by finding the least common multiple of the two denominators we already have.
The least common multiple is 12, because that is the lowest number that both 6 and 4 are factors of.
We multiplied the 6 by 2 to get twelve, so, to make it equivalent, we have to multiply the 5 by 2 also.
10/12-1/4
Now, since we multiplied the 4 by 3 to get twelve, we need to do the same to the 1.
10/12-3/12
You never subtract denominators, only numerators. Now, all we have to do is 10-3:
10/12-3/12=
7/12
So, you would have 7/12 cup of cocoa left over if you made the cookies.
I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D

Angles DUT and VUD sum to VUT. We can create an equation to model this.
DUT + VUD = VUT
Now, let's plug our values into the equation.
24x + 5 + 46 = 35x - 4
Simplify the left side.
24x + 51 = 35x - 4
Subtract 24x from both sides and add 4 to both sides.
55 = 11x
Divide both sides by 11.
5 = x
