Answer 1

Answer:  18/7

This approximates to 2.5714

=====================================================

Explanation:

The two triangles are similar. We can use the AA (angle angle) theorem to prove this claim.

Because [tex]\triangle ABC \sim \triangle ADE[/tex], this means:

side AB corresponds to side AD. The letters from AB are the first two letters of ABC while AD are the first two letters from ADE.side BC corresponds to DE. We have BC as the last two letters of ABC and DE the last two letters of ADE

As those bullet points above mention, the order of ABC and ADE matters to allow us to pair up the corresponding angles and corresponding sides.

From that, we can form the proportion below to solve for x

AB/AD = BC/DE

3/(3+4) = x/6

3/7 = x/6

3*6 = 7*x

18 = 7x

7x = 18

x = 18/7

You could convert this to the approximate decimal form 18/7 = 2.5714, but I think it's better to keep it as a fraction.

Usando proporciones, se encuentra que 400 africanos han participado.

En total, hay x participantes.

[tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] de los corredores son europeos, o sea:

Los africanos son la quinta parte de los americanos, o sea:

[tex]Afr = \frac{1}{5}Am = \frac{x}{60}[/tex]

Answer:

x=458

Step-by-step explanation:

1729-810=919

919-790=129

810-129=681

681-112=569

112-1=111

569-111= 458 (which is the answer)

Answer:

I get 458, but please check the calculations.

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment.  I worked down the pyramid until I has enough information to calculate x.  For example, 919 had to be the difference of (1729 - 810) for a sum of 1729.  129 had to be the difference of (919-790).  681 is the difference of (810 - 129).  And so on . . .

Answer:

[tex]y=-1 \frac{2}{3}x+5[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b is slope-intercept form

m= slope

b= y-intercept (where the line on the graph touches the y=axis aka the line that goes vertically or up and down).

The photo you have attached is very blurry but i will do my best to read the numbers on the graph.

the y-intercept looks to be at 5

so we plug that in

y=mx+5

now let's get the slope.

pick two points you can easily see,

slope is change in y over the change in x --- which is simplified below

rise over run

y2-y1 divided by x2-x1

we can see the point (0,5) and the point (3,0)

(3,0) is going to be the x2 and y2 and the other point is the x and y 1s

0-5= -5

3-0= 3

-5/3

let's simplify that

we know three goes into five once, so that gives us one whole but it's still negative because our slope is negative.

-1 2/3

that is our slope

let's plug it in:

[tex]y=-1 \frac{2}{3}x+5[/tex]

that is our answer!

If triangles ADE and ABC shown in the
figure to the right are similar, what is the
value of x?

Answers

The answer is A. 4.
x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

similar means that (with all angles being the same) the side lengths of one triangle all correlate to the corresponding side lengths of the second triangle by the same factor.

and so, because AD = 2 is 1/3 of AB = 4+2 = 6, we need to apply the same factor 1/3 to x compared to 12.

12 × 1/3 = 4.

so, A is correct.

5.37 + x =12.89 explanation please it’s two step equation

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this equation, we must isolate the variable, x.

1.) To do this, subtract 5.37 on both sides of the equation.

5.37 + x = 12.89

a) second year?
b) fourth year?

Answers

C. Seventh year because that’s how much he will earn from the interest

The amount at the end of the second year is $9,734.49.

The amount at the end of the fourth year is $10,811.22.

The amount at the end of the seventh year is $12,653.68.

The amount at the end of the tenth year is $14,810.14.

What is compound interest?

It is the interest we earned on the interest.

The formula for the amount earned with compound interest after n years is given as:

A = P [tex](1 + r/n)^{nt}[/tex]

P = principal

R = rate

t = time in years

n = number of times compounded in a year.

We have,

P = $8765

r = 5.28%

n = 4 (quarterly)

Amount after 2 years.

A = 8765 [tex](1 + 0.0131)^2[/tex]

A = $9,734.49

Amount after 4 years.

A = 8765 [tex](1 + 0.0131)^4[/tex]

A = $10,811.22

Amount after 7 years.

A = 8765 [tex](1 + 0.0131)^7[/tex]

A = $12,653.68

Amount after 10 years.

A = 8765 [tex](1 + 0.0131)^{10}[/tex]

A = $14,810.14

Thus,

The amount at the end of the second, fourth, seventh, and tenth year is given above.
