Managers of a sports arena's parking garage keep track of the duration of time customers park their cars in the garage. Shown in the stem-and-leaf display below is a sample of such parking durations (in minutes). For this sample,20 of the durations were from weekday use of the garage, and 23 were from weekend use. Answer the questions that follow.

c.   x=2.4cm

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.

answer:   (s+1)(s+4)

step-by-step explanation:

factor s2+5s+4

s2+5s+4

=(s+1)(s+4)
