A boat travels 432km in 24 hours how far can it travel in 16 hours?

288km

Step-by-step explanation:

if a boat travels 432km in 24 hours .

then

it will cover x km in 16 hours

Using Direct Proportion:

hence the boat is gonna travel 288km in 16 hours

what "following statement"?

step-by-step explanation:

d) by the cross product property, ab^2 = bc multiplied by ad

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

in the given triangle abc

angle a is 90° and segment ad is perpendicular to segment bc

we can see that

triangle(abc) and triangle(abd) are similar because they have common side and same angle (90 degree)

so, triangles(abc) and abd are similar

since, they are similar

so, the ratio of their sides must be equal

we get

now, we can cross multiply

and we get

so, this could be step to prove it
