YA + AZ = YZ

22 + 16x = 166

16x = 166 - 22

16x = 144

x = 144/16

x = 9

AZ = 144

Answer:

AZ = 144 unit              

Step-by-step explanation:

Because A lies between Y and Z, YZ is the straight segment and A is a point on it between Y and Z.

Given YA = 22

AZ = 16x

YZ = 166

Since A is between Y and Z

⇒ YZ = YA + AZ

⇒ 166 = 22 + 16x

⇒ 144 = 16x

⇒ x = 9

Hence, AZ = 16x = 16 × 9 = 144 unit

A ramp with a constant incline is made to connect a driveway to the front door and 4 feet from the driveway the height of the ra
zzz [12365]

The correct response is:

3 inches rise for every foot in length

Explanation:

To derive the rate of change, we need to compute the difference in height and the difference in distance. The rate of change is expressed as rise/run, or

(change in height)/(change in length).

The respective heights at the specified points are 18 inches and 12 inches, resulting in a change of 18-12 = 6 inches.

The corresponding lengths at those points are 6 feet and 4 feet, yielding a change of 6-4 = 2 feet.

This implies our rate of change is (6 inches)/(2 feet), which simplifies to (3 inches)/(1 foot), indicating a rise of 3 inches for each foot of incline on the driveway.

Linda found that the cost to get a swimming pool installed in her backyard is a linear function of the pool's area. A swimming p
lawyer [12517]

Answer:

The equation for the line is C = 30A + 9000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A denote Area and C stand for Cost, we can deduce that:

For an area of A = 1500 square feet, the cost amounts to C = 54000

If A = 700, then, C = 30000

Since the cost equation represents a function of area, this establishes a linear connection, necessitating the formulation of the line's equation.

C = mA + b

Where:

m denotes the slope of the line

b indicates the intercept with the C axis..

We possess two coordinates:

(700, 30000)

(1500, 54000)

Using these points, we calculate the slope via the formula:

m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m = \frac{54000-30000}{1500-700}\\\\m = 30

Consequently, the equation concludes with:

C = 30A +b

To find b, we substitute the point (700, 30000) into the equation

30000 = 30(700) + b\\\\30000 -21000=b

b = 9000

Thus

C = 30A + 9000

The linear equation's graph is depicted in the provided image

Line RS intersects triangle BCD at two points and is parallel to segment DC. Triangle B C D is cut by line R S. Line R S goes th
Zina [12379]

Answer:

The correct statements are;

1) ΔBCD is similar to ΔBSR

2) BR/RD = BS/SC

3) (BR)(SC) = (RD)(BS)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Since RS is parallel to DC, we conclude that;

∠BDC = ∠BRS (Angles formed on the same side of the transversal)

Furthermore;

∠BCD = ∠BSR (Angles formed on the same side of the transversal)

∠CBD = ∠CBD (Reflexive property)

Thus;

ΔBCD ~ ΔBSR by the Angle-Angle-Angle (AAA) similarity criterion.

2) Given that  ΔBCD ~ ΔBSR, we obtain;

BC/BS = BD/BR → (BS + SC)/BS = (BR + RD)/BR = 1 + SC/BS = RD/BR + 1

1 + SC/BS = 1 + RD/BR thus, SC/BS = 1 + BR/RD - 1

SC/BS = RD/BR

By inverting both sides we find;

BR/RD = BS/SC

3) From BR/RD = BS/SC, we apply cross multiplication;

BR/RD = BS/SC leads to;

BR × SC = RD × BS → (BR)(SC) = (RD)(BS).
