Answer:
C. ⁵/12= ²/x
Step-by-step Explanation:
Given that rectangle EFGH is similar to rectangle JKLM, it means the corresponding sides of both rectangles are similar, and as such the ratios if the corresponding sides of rectangle EFGH and rectangle JKLM would be equal.
Thus, EF/JK = FG/KL
Since, EF = 5; JK = 12; FG = 2; and KL= x, therefore, the proportion to use in finding x would be:
⁵/12= ²/x

Answer:the amount that the bookstore pay the publisher for the book is $64.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount that the bookstore pay the publisher for the book.
The college bookstore marks up the price that it pays the publisher for a book by 35%. This means that the value of the mark up would be
35/100 × x = 0.35 × x = 0.35x
Therefore, the amount that the bookstore is selling the book would be
x + 0.35x = 1.35x
If the selling price of a book is $ 87.00, then it means that
1.35x = 87
x = 87/1.35 = 64.4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) (a + b)² = (a + b) * (a +b)
(a + b)³ = (a + b) * (a +b) * (a +b)
a²- b² = (a +b) (a - b)
Here (a + b) is common in all the three expressions
HCF = (a + b)
b) (x - 1) = (x - 1)
x² - 1 = (x - 1) * (x + 1)
(x³ - 1) = (x - 1) (x² + x + 1)
HCF = (x -1)
