Solve For X, The Triangles Are Similar

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ ESR and Δ EGF are similar, then ratios of corresponding sides are equal, so

[tex]\frac{ES}{EG}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{ER}{EF}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{45}{12x-3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{55}{143}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

55(12x - 3) = 6435 ( divide both sides by 55 )

12x - 3 = 117 ( add 3 to both sides )

12x = 120 ( divide both sides by 12 )

x = 10

Part C of Jim and his dad are building a rectangular flower bed.
If Jim and his dad decide to decrease the width of the flower bed from 15 feet, what happens to its length?

Answers

i gotchu

The perimeter is 35. If we were to change the width, which is one of the dimensions of the flower bed, The perimeter will change. This means that perimeter will no longer be 35. So in order to keep the perimeter as it is, if we change one dimension, we must also change the other.

Let's solve for the length, using the formula to see how much the length changes from.

p = 2l + 2w

35 = 2l + 2(15)

35 = 2l + 30

5 = 2l

2.5 = l


We must increase the length from 2.5 feet. This is because decreasing one dimension will decrease the perimeter. But if we increase the other dimension as well, it will restore the perimeter to where is was initially.

Javier jogs 3/4 of a mile in 8/1/2 minutes.

If he keeps the same pace, how many minutes will it take him to jog 1 mile?

Answers

Answer:

11 1/3 minutes per mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 miles jogged in 8 1/2 minutes.

So 1 mile jogged in: 8 1/2 divided by 3/4 = 8 1/2 x 4/3  = (17 x 4) / (2 x 3) = 11 1/3 minutes per mile

Answer:

x = 11 1/3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a ratio to solve

3/4 mile              1 mile

----------------- = --------------

8 1/2 minutes        x minutes

Using cross products

3/4 *x = 8 1/2

Multiply each side by 4/3

4/3 * 3/4x = 8 1/2 * 4/3

x = 17/2 * 4/3

x = 34/3

x = 11 1/3

in order to apply the law of cosines to find the length of the side of a triangle, is it enough to know which of the following?


A. The area of a triangle

B. The lengths of two of the triangle's sides and the measure of the angle between them

C. At least two of the angles of the triangle and the length of one of its sides

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  B. The lengths of two of the triangle's sides and the measure of the angle between them

Step-by-step explanation:

The usual formulation of the law of cosines is something like this:

  c² = a² +b² -2ab·cos(C)

where 'c' is the side opposite angle C, and 'a' and 'b' are the other two sides. That is, to use this formula directly, one needs two side lengths and the measure of the included angle.

_____

Additional comment

One can use the law of cosines to solve a triangle when any two sides and one angle are known. The use of the formula will give a quadratic in the unknown side length, if it is not the side opposite the known angle. As with the law of sines, if the angle is opposite the shorter of the two given sides, there may be two solutions for the length of the third side.

What is the probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by greater than 1.9 dollars if a sample of 92 5-gallon pails is randomly selected

Answers

Answer:

The correct solution is "0.0226".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question seems to be incomplete. Please find below the attachment of the complete query.

According to the question,

Mean

= 29

Standard deviation (s),

= 8

For sample size pf 92,

The standard error will be:

[tex]SE=\frac{s}{\sqrt{N} }[/tex]

     [tex]=\frac{8}{\sqrt{92} }[/tex]

     [tex]=0.834[/tex]

now,

⇒ [tex]1-P(\frac{-1.9}{0.834} < z < \frac{1.9}{0.834} )[/tex] = [tex]1-P(-2.28<z<2.28)[/tex]

or,

                                          = [tex]1-(2\times P(z<2.28)-1)[/tex]

                                          = [tex]2-2\times P(z<2.28)[/tex]

With the help of table, the normal distribution will be:

=  [tex]2-2\times 0.9887[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

h= 60

g= 120

m= 147

k= 33

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that all three lines are straight an continuous, so, at any given point the angles should add up to 180 degrees.

This immediately helps with angle h:

    120 + h = 180

              h = 60

As well as m:

     33 + m = 180

              m = 147

There are two ways to solve the next part:

First and most familiar way:

    h + g = 180

    60 + g = 180

             g = 120

and:

    m + k = 180

    147 + k = 180

              k = 33

The other way that I prefer is that the angles opposite of each other when two lines intersect are equal. I don't know if that makes sense, it's hard to explain in this format.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the expression for the general term, you can fill in the known values and solve for the parameters of the sequence.

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

  a8 = a1 + d(8 -1) = 60

  a12 = a1 + d(12 -1) = 48

The difference of these equations is ...

  (a1 +7d) -(a1 +11d) = (60) -(48)

  -4d = 12

  d = -3

Substituting into the first equation, we have ...

  a1 +7(-3) = 60

  a1 = 81 . . . . . . . . . add 21

Then the 40th term is ...

  a40 = 81 -3(40 -1) = 81 -117

  a40 = -36

The figure below consists of a rectangle and a
semicircle. Find the perimeter of the figure. Use π =
3.14.

Answers

Step 1: Find the perimeter of the rectangle

The rectangle has two lengths and one width that we need to add together. The width of the rectangle is equal to 2 times the radius (or the diameter) of the circle, which is 16.

25 + 25 + 16 = 66

Step 2: Find the perimeter of the semicircle

The perimeter of a semicircle is equal to half of the circumference.

C = pi x diameter

1/2 (3.14) x (16) = 25.12

Step 3: Find the perimeter of the figure

All that's left to do is add the two perimeters together.

66 + 25.12 = 91.12 m

The side length of an equilateral triangle is x + 3. Write an expression for the perimeter of the triangle. *

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter = (x+3) * 3 =    3x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+3) would be multiplied by 3 in order to account for each of the three sides of the equilateral triangle-

The expression for the perimeter of the triangle is 3x+9.To find the expression for the perimeter of the triangle.

What is the perimeter?

Perimeter is the distance around the edge of a shape. The continuous line forms the boundary of a closed geometrical figure.In an equilateral triangle, all 3 sides are the same length, so the equation would look something like this:

P=the perimeter of the triangle

(x+3)=length of each side

P=3(x+3)

To simplify further, distribute the 3 to both the x and the 3 inside of the parentheses, getting

P=3x+9.

So, the expression for the perimeter of the triangle is 3x+9.

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

7.)

Supplementary angles add up to 180°. ∠B's supplement is 22°. This means ∠B is 158°. Since ∠A ≅ ∠B, the m∠A = 158°.

8.)

Again, supplementary angles add up to 180°. ∠P is a right angle meaning it is 90°. Therefore, the m∠Q is 90° as well.

9.)

Complementary angles add up to 90°. In order for ∠S and ∠T to be complementary, they both need to angle measurements less than 90° meaning they both need to be acute angles.

Now that we know that ∠T is acute, the only way ∠U can be its supplement is if it has an angle measure greater than 90°. Therefore, ∠U is an obtuse angle.

10.)

Similar to question 9, if an angle is obtuse, its supplement must be an acute angle.
