Geometry, please answer question ASAP

XY = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

In similar triangles, the corresponding sides are in same ratio.

Cross multiply,

(x + 6 )(2x-4) = 16*30

Use FOIL method

x*2x + x*(-4) + 6*2x + 6*(-4) = 480

2x² - 4x + 12x - 24 = 480  {Combine like terms}

2x² + 8x - 24 = 480

2x² + 8x - 24 - 480 = 0

2x² + 8x - 504 = 0

Divide the entire equation by 2

x² + 4x - 252 = 0

Sum = 4

Product = -252

Factors = 18 , -14   {18 +(-14) = 4  & 18*(-14) = -254 }

x² + 4x - 252 = 0

x² + 18x - 14x - 252 = 0  {Rewrite middle term}

x(x + 18) - 14(x + 18) = 0

(x + 18)(x - 14) = 0

x - 14 = 0           {Ignore x + 18 = 0 as measurement will not come in negative}

x = 14

XY  = 2x - 4

    = 2*14 -4

     = 28 - 4

       = 24

true

step-by-step explanation:

median is the value separating the higher half of a data sample, a population or probablity distribution from the lower half.

step-by-step explanation:

say you have 3,8,7,3,1,9,8 order them from lowest to highest

if orderd it would be 1,3,3,7,8,8,9 now you take away from the lowest and the highest until you end up in the middle.

so you would remove the 1 and 9 leaving you with 5 digits remaining

when you've reached the middle that would be your answer so in this case the answer is 7

if there were two numbers left say 7 and 5 you'd and them together so 12 then divide by 2 witch would equal 6 so the answer would be 6

good luck on that project hoped i you at all
