Answer: 7.5
Form your proportion. Let x be the width of QRST.
Length of ABCD Length of QRST
----------------------- = -------------------------
Width of ABCD Width of QRST
8/5 = 12/x
Solve for x by cross-multiplying.
(8)(x) = (12)(5)
8x = 60
x = 7.5
Answer:
<h2>5,040 I'm sure that's answer thank you</h2>
The first step for solving this expression is to distribute

through the first set of parenthesis.

× (x - 9)
Now use the FOIL method to multiply each term in the first parenthesis by each term in the second parenthesis. This will look like the following:

x × x -

x × 9 -

x -

× (-9)
Remember that multiplying two negatives together equals a positive,, so the expression changes to:

x × x -

x × 9 -

x +

× 9
Calculate the product of all of the sets of multiplication to make the expression become:

x² -

x -

x +

Lastly,, calculate the difference of -

x -

x to find your final answer.

x² -

x +
