How do you solve the proportion: 11/5.9 = 15/x I learned this a while back I just forget how to do it. thx

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: $(11)/(5.9)= (15)/(x)$

You have to cross multiply and you get:
$11x=5.9*15$

$x= (5.9*15)/(11)$

$x= 8.045(45)$

Answer 2

Answer: Multiply 15 by 5.9. Then divide by 11

Ali says if two lines share a point they cannot be parallel do you agree explain

Answers

Yes, parallel lines do not touch each other ever.

How are parallel straight lines related?

Parallellines have the same slope since the slope is like a measure of steepness and since parallel lines are of the same steepness, thus, are of the same slope.

Since the given parallel line has equation y = 2x + 2, thus its slope is 2 and thus, the slope of the needed line is 2 too.

We are given that Ali says if two lines share a point they cannot be parallel .

Horizontal refers to something that goes parallel to ground level. Of course it depends on from where you see that thing.

When you slice an object horizontally, you cut it parallel to ground.

We know that parallel linesdo not touch each other ever.

so that's make ali statement correct.

Yes, parallel lines do not touch ever, that's what makes them parallel.

How many times can 26 go into 59

Answers

It can only go twice. 26 x 2 = 52, but 59 - 52 is 7, which is smaller than 26. So the final answer should be 2.
Hope this helped! :)

What is,the answer to this problem

Answers

The key here is to remember that if the figures are "similar", then
each pair of corresponding sides has the same ratio. In both problems,
the pair of figures is similar. (It says so twice on the sheet.)

For the triangle in #1):

-- One pair of corresponding sides is 15yd and 9yd.
-- Their ratio is 15/9 = 5:3 .

-- The other pair of corresponding sides is 20yd and 12 yd.
-- Their ratio is 20/12 = 5:3 .

-- For each pair of corresponding sides, the one in the small triangle
   is 3/5 the size of the corresponding side in the big triangle.

-- The last pair of corresponding sides is 30yd and 'x' .
-- Their ratio is 5:3 .   'x' is 3/5 of 30yd.

For the quadrilateral in #3):
The figures are not both in the same position.
Compared to the smaller one, the bigger one is rotated
almost halfway around to the right.
The smaller one has the shortest side on the bottom, but
the bigger one has the shortest side almost on top.
So you have to be very careful about deciding which side of the
big one and which side of the small one are corresponding sides.
But the question does tell you that the drawings are 'similar', so
you know that each pair of corresponding sides has the same ratio.

-- One pair of corresponding sides is 12in (top of the big one)
      and 4in (bottom of the small one).
-- Their ratio is 12/4 = 3 .

-- Another pair of corresponding sides is 30in and 10in .
-- Their ratio is 30/10 = 3 .

-- Another pair of corresponding sides is 36in and 12in .
-- Their ratio is 36/12 = 3 .

-- For each pair of corresponding sides, the one in the small figure
   is 1/3the size of the corresponding side in the big figure.

-- The last pair of corresponding sides is 48in and 'x' .
-- Their ratio is 3 .  'x' is 1/3 of 48in .

Your help is much appreciated!

Have an awesome day!

Answers

Answer:

572 ?

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer would be 382, that is because you divide 636 by 2, for both adult and student, then you add 64 (and therefore are removing 64 from the student side) equaling 382!
