A linear function has an x-intercept of 12 and a slope of a. How does this function compare to the linear function that is represented by the table?
16
OIt has the same slope and the same y-intercept.
O Ithas the same slope and a different y-intercept.
OIthas the same y-intercept and a different slope,

If the two linear equations have the same slope (and different y-intercepts), the lines will be parallel. Since parallel lines never intersect, a system composed of two parallel lines will have NO solution (no intersection of the lines.

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
