Given \small \Delta ABC\sim\Delta DEC, could you use the proportion \small \frac{9}{10}=\frac{8.75}{EC} to determine the measure of EC? If yes, type yes and solve for EC. (Must type yes and give value of EC) If no, type no and rewrite the proportion and then solve for EC. (Must type no, give the correct proportion, and the value of EC)

answer: h=5.6 i don't really know how to put into words, so i though i would let you do that. i hope i was able to some

step-by-step explanation:

18 = 6(h)+1/2

18 = 6h+1/2

18-1 = 6h/2

17 = 3h

17/3 = h

h = 5.6

proportions are fractions that equal to each other. so if two fractions are the same, they are proportional.

let's check the answers to see if they are proportional.

question a is not proportional because you can't turn 1.5/3 to 3/9. if you try to multiply 1.5/3 by 2 or 3, you wont get 3/9. it's impossible to make the fractions the same.

question b is not proportional because you can't turn 22/33 to 4/6. 33 can't go into 6.

question c is proportional because when you multiply 2 and 3 by 71, you would get 142/213, and those fractions equal to each other

question d is proportional because when you divide 14 and 7 by 2, you would end up with 7/3.5, and those fractions equal to each other.

the answer is 15.50 for one mile

b) is slope: 0   y- intercept 15.5
