The distance between hadley and greenville is 13 miles less than the distance between parker and greenville. write two equations that compare the distance between parker and greenville. tell what your variable represents.
distance between greenville and nearby towns (miles):
parker: 29
hadley: ?

Here 'x' represents the distance between Hadley and Greenville   and 'y' represents  the distance between Parker and Greenville.

The distance between Hadley and Greenville =42 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance between Hadley and Greenville  be x and the distance between Parker and Greenville be y.

Then according to the question,

If the distance between Parker and Greenville = 29 miles

Then substitute the value of y=29 in the above equation, we get

⇒ The distance between Hadley and Greenville =42 miles

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
