Triangles qvs and rts are similar. find side vs.

In order to solve the equation, set up a proportion. Use the similar sides together!

1. 16/8 = x/20 Similar sides are in one ratio and they equal another ratio"x" represents the side of VS

2.Solve for "x" by cross multiplying: 8x = 320

3. Divide by 8 to find "x": x = 40

Side VS equals 40. Hope this helped :)

1: -2 3/4, -2 1/2, -14, 0, 3, 8 1/3

2: -4, -3, -2 1/2, -2 1/4, 3 1/4,

step-by-step explanation:

part a

x     y

0     8

1     7.5

2     7

3     6.5

4     6

5     5.5  

for every hour i deducted .5 inches from the length of the candle

part b

it is a function because for every x value there is only one y value

part   c

for every x value there is only one y value

x       y

0       8
