Answer:

The value of x is \frac{45}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

The property of similar triangles states that:

The ratio of the areas of two similar triangles is the same as the ratio of their corresponding sides.

Let’s first label the points, angles, and sides in the triangle (figure-1)

and now redraw the three similar triangles in another diagram (figure-2)

We can determine x through the ratio of the corresponding sides of the first two triangles;

\frac{\,side\,opposite\,to\,angle\,a\,}{hypotenuse}=\frac{x}{15}=\frac{15}{20}

\frac{x}{15}=\frac{3}{4}

Multiply both sides by '15'

\x=\frac{3}{4}\times15

\x=\frac{45}{4}

Therefore, the value of x is \frac{45}{4}

a sign says that the price marked on all music equipment is 30% off the original price you buy an electric guitar for sale price
PIT_PIT [9117]

The original price stands at $450.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Given information, Discount%, D% = 30 and Selling Price, SP = $315

Step 2:

Formulate the equation for determining the Original Price

Selling Price (SP) = Original Price (OP) - Discount (D)

Discount (D) = Original Price (OP) * (D%/100)

Step 3:

Plug in the known values into the formula

315 = OP - D

D = OP \times30/100

D = 0.3 OP

Step 4:

Insert the value of D back into the initial equation

315 = OP - 0.3 OP

315 = OP (1 - 0.3) = 0.7 OP

A resulting Original Price of OP = 315/0.7 = $450

tester [8842]
Her phrasing suggests that she would sell numerous water bottles and just a single iced tea. The accurate equation should be 1.25x + 1.49y = 100, as she may offer varying quantities of both.
