In the figure below, ABC is similar to XYZ . What is the length of ZX ? Enter only the number as an integer or decimal. An image shows two similar right triangles, A B C and X Y Z. Triangle A B C is smaller than triangle X Y Z. In triangle A B C, side A B is 2, side B C is 4, and side C A is 3. In triangle X Y Z, side X Y is 7, side Y Z is 14, and side Z X is labeled N.

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle XYZ.

In triangle ABC AB=2, BC=4, CA=3.

In triangle XYZ, XY=7, YZ=14, ZX=N.

To find:

The length of ZX.

Solution:

If two triangles are similar, then their corresponding sides are proportional.

Since [tex]\Delta ABC\sim \Delta XYZ[/tex], therefore

[tex]\dfrac{AB}{XY}=\dfrac{BC}{YZ}=\dfrac{CA}{ZX}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{2}{7}=\dfrac{4}{14}=\dfrac{3}{N}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{2}{7}=\dfrac{2}{7}=\dfrac{3}{N}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{2}{7}=\dfrac{3}{N}[/tex]

On cross multiplication, we get

[tex]2\times N=3\times 7[/tex]

[tex]2N=21[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]N=\dfrac{21}{2}[/tex]

[tex]N=10.5[/tex]

Therefore, the length of side ZX is 10.5 units.

Answers

Answer:

let's see what to do buddy...

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the output of a number in a function, we must put it in the equation of the function instead of the x .

So to find output of ( x = 4 ) , we must put 4 instead of x in the equation .

Let's do it :

[tex]f(4) = 4 \times (4) + 7 \\ \\ f(4) = 16 + 7 = 23 \\ [/tex]

So the output number of ( x = 4 ) is 23 .

The graphs below show some data from a coffee shop menu. One of the graphs shows cost (in dollar) vs. drink volume (in ounces), and one of the graphs shows calories vs. drink volume (in ounces.)

b. Which quantities appear to be in a proportional relationship?
1. cost vs volume or
2. calories vs volume
For the proportional relationship, find the constant of proportionality.
a. 0.21 per ounce,
b. 12 calories per ounce,
c. 0.38$ per ounce, or
d. 15 calories per ounce

Answers

Answer:

a. Graph A: Cost vs Volume

Graph B: Calories vs Volume

b. Graph B (Calories vs Volume)

c. k = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

a. It is not possible for a volume of 10 oz of drink to be sold for $150. It doesn't make common sense. Also, calorie level of 150 in 10 oz of drink seem plausible.

It makes more sense if 10 oz of the drink cost $3.75. Therefore, the graphs should be titled as follows:

Graph A: Cost vs Volume

Graph B: Calories vs Volume

b. The quantities in Graph B (Calories vs Volume) appear to be in a proportional relationship. We know this because if we try drawing a line to connect the points on the graph, it will give us a straight line. A straight line connotes proportionality.

Also the ratio of the quantities of the two known points given are the same. I.e. [tex] \frac{150}{10} = \frac{360}{24} = 15 [/tex]

Therefore the quantities compared in Graph B shows a proportional relationship.

c. Constant of proportionality = [tex] \frac{150}{10} = \frac{360}{24} = 15 [/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Composite functions are function of two or more functions to serve as one function. For example, given d(x) and g(x), we can write both as composite function as d(g(x)). We can call it function of a function. Hence, from the following function, the following options except option B are composite.

d(x)g(x) is the product of the two functions not a composite.

Option B is correct.

b) Given h(x) = x-1 and d(x) = 7x+3

H(3) = 3-1

H(3) = 2

d(2) = 7(2)+3

d(2) = 14+3

d(2) = 17

h(3)+d(2) = 2+17

h(3)+d(2) = 19 (option D)

c) Given t(x) = -x² + 7x + 1 and r(x) = 5x² - 2x + 8, we are to first find the function

t(x)-r(x)

t(x)-r(x) = -x²+7x+1-5x²+2x-8

t(x)-r(x) = -x²-5x²+7x+2x+1-8

t(x)-r(x) = -6x²+9x-7

Substitute x as 2

(t-r)(2) = -6(2)²+9(2)-7

t-r (2) = -6(4)+18-7

(t-r)(2) = -24+11

(t-r)(2) = -13 (option C)

d) If h(x) = 4x + 2 and g(x) = 3x - 1,

h-g = 4x+2-(3x-1)

h-g = 4x+2-3x+1

h-g = 4x-3x+2+1

h-g = x+3

h-g(4) = 4+3

(h-g)(4) = 7

e) If g(x) = x - 4 and h(x) = x + 5, we are to find f(x)h(x)

h(x)g(x) = (x-4)(x+5)

h(x)g(x) = x(x)+5x-4x-20

h(x)g(x) = x²+x-20

Hence the product of h(x) and g(x) is x²+x-20. Option D is correct

AB

CD
are straight lines.

Answers

Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

If AB and CD are the straight lines, sum all the angles formed at a point lying on this line will be 180°.

m∠COE + m∠EOF + m∠FOB + m∠BOD = 180° [Angles at a point O on line AB]

3x + x + (x + 12) + m∠BOD = 180°

m∠BOD = 180° - (5x + 12)

Similarly, m∠AOD + m∠AOC = 180°

152° + m∠AOC = 180°

m∠AOC = 28°

Since, ∠AOC and ∠BOD are the vertical angles,

m∠AOC = m∠BOD

180° - (5x + 12)° = 28°

5x + 12 = 180 - 28

5x = 140

x = 28

Answers

Answer:  the left side is balanced with the right side

Step-by-step explanation:

Left side:

1 barrel (located at 2) is 1 unit from the fulcrum (triangle)         →    1(1) = 1

2 barrels (located at 1) are 2 units from the fulcrum (triangle)  →  2(2) = 4

1 barrel (located at 0) is 3 units from the fulcrum (triangle)       →  1(3) = 3    

                                                                                                       Total = 8

Right side:

1 barrel (located at 6) is 3 units from the fulcrum (triangle)       →    1(3) = 3

1 barrel (located at 8) is 5 units from the fulcrum (triangle)       →  1(5) = 5    

                                                                                                       Total = 8

The distribution of the weight on the left side equals the distribution of weight on the right side so the beam is balanced.
