The Area of EFGH is 2x+9 which is similar to The Area of JKLM is 2x-6. The perimeter of EFGH is x+3 which is similar to the Perimeter of JKLM is x-1. FInd all Possible values of X.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x = 9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume EFGH and JKLM are rectangles

JKLM appears to be the smaller of both.

So:

[tex]EF = n * JK[/tex] and [tex]GH = n * LM[/tex]

Where n is the scale of dilation

The area of EFGH is:

[tex]Area = EF * GH[/tex] ----- (1)

Substitute [tex]EF = n * JK[/tex] and [tex]GH = n * LM[/tex]

[tex]Area = n*JK * n*LM[/tex]

[tex]Area = n^2*JK * LM[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Area = EF * GH[/tex] and [tex]Area = n^2*JK * LM[/tex]

[tex]EF * GH = 2x + 9[/tex] --- Given

[tex]JK * LM = 2x - 6[/tex] --- Given

So:

[tex]Area = EF * GH[/tex] and [tex]Area = n^2*JK * LM[/tex]

[tex]Area = 2x + 9[/tex] and [tex]Area = n^2 * (2x - 6)[/tex]

Equate bot areas

[tex]2x + 9 = n^2*(2x - 6)[/tex]

Make n^2 the subject

[tex]n^2 = \frac{2x + 9}{2x - 6}[/tex]

The perimeter (P) of EFGH is:

[tex]P = 2*(EF + GH)[/tex] ----- (1)

Substitute [tex]EF = n * JK[/tex] and [tex]GH = n * LM[/tex]

[tex]P = 2*(n*JK + n*LM)[/tex]

[tex]P = 2n*(JK + LM)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P = 2*(EF + GH)[/tex] and [tex]P = 2n*(JK + LM)[/tex]

[tex]2*(EF + GH) = x + 3[/tex] --- Given

[tex]2*(JK + LM) = x - 1[/tex] --- Given

So:

[tex]P = 2*(EF + GH)[/tex] and [tex]P = 2n*(JK + LM)[/tex]

[tex]P =x + 3[/tex] and [tex]P = n *(x - 1)[/tex]

Equate bot perimeters

[tex]x + 3 = n(x - 1)[/tex]

Make n the subject

[tex]n =\frac{x + 3}{x - 1}[/tex]

Square both sides

[tex]n^2 =\frac{(x + 3)^2}{(x - 1)^2}[/tex]

Recall that: [tex]n^2 = \frac{2x + 9}{2x - 6}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\frac{(x + 3)^2}{(x - 1)^2} = \frac{2x + 9}{2x - 6}[/tex]

Evaluate all squares

[tex]\frac{x^2 + 6x +9}{x^2 - 2x + 1} = \frac{2x + 9}{2x - 6}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex](x^2 + 6x +9)(2x - 6) = (x^2 - 2x + 1)(2x + 9)[/tex]

Open brackets

[tex]2x^3 +12x^2 + 18x - 6x^2 -36x -54 = 2x^3 - 4x^2 + 2x + 9x^2 - 18x +9[/tex]

Subtract 2x^3 from both sides

[tex]12x^2 + 18x - 6x^2 -36x -54 = - 4x^2 + 2x + 9x^2 - 18x +9[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]12x^2 - 6x^2 + 18x -36x -54 = - 4x^2 + 9x^2+ 2x - 18x +9[/tex]

[tex]6x^2 - 18x -54 = 5x^2- 16x +9[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]6x^2 -5x^2 - 18x +16x -54 -9= 0[/tex]

[tex]x^2 -2x -63= 0[/tex]

Expand

[tex]x^2 +7x - 9x - 63 = 0[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]x(x +7) - 9(x + 7) = 0[/tex]

[tex](x -9) (x + 7) = 0[/tex]

[tex]x = 9\ or\ -7[/tex]

x can not be negative.

So: [tex]x = 9[/tex]

Hey I want you to know to have a bless day

The function that best models the situation is f(x) = 23540(0.95)ˣ, where x is the number of years.

What is function?

A function is a relation from a set of inputs to a set of possible outputs where each input is related to exactly one output.

Given that, Andy buys a new car for $23,540. He estimates that the new car will decrease in value by about 5% each year.

The depreciation rate =

A = P(1-r)ⁿ

Where, A = amount final

P = initial amount

r = rate and n = number of the years

Therefore,

The depreciation rate =

f(x) = 23540(1-0.05)ˣ

f(x) = 23540(0.95)ˣ

Hence, the function that best models the situation is f(x) = 23540(0.95)ˣ, where x is the number of years.

Answers

Answer:

Part 1 : y = 0.75x

Part 2 : $750

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1

Worst Buy, a local electronics store, advertises a sale price of 25% off all televisions 42" or bigger. Model the sales price (original price minus discount) of those televisions, y, as a function of the regular price of the tv, x.

Let y be the sales price of the tv and x its regular price. Since its sales price = regular price - discount, and our discount is 25% of the sales price, that is 0.25x, we have

sales price = regular price - discount

y = x - 0.25x

y = 0.75x

Part 2:  If the regular price of a 60" television is $1000, use the equation you came up with in part 1 to find the sales price of the item

Since the sales price, y = 0.75x,and x = regular price = $1000,

substituting x into y, we have

y = 0.75x

y = 0.75($1000)

y = $750

Answers

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

if their similar then find the proportion with a cross multiplication equation

x/36 = 13/39

x*39 = 36*13

39x = 468

x = 468/39

x = 12

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

[tex]\frac{JL}{PQ}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{JK}{PR}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{x}{36}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{15}{45}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

3x = 36 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 12

If x and y vary inversely and x = 1 when y = 11, find x when y = 5.5.

Answers

Answer:

x = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = k/x

11 = k/1

so k = 11

y = 11/x

When y = 5.5:

5.5 = 11/ x

x = 11/5.5

= 2.

The values of x and y vary inversely, if the value of y is 5.5 then the value of x will be equal to 2.
