the ratio of the area of square KLMN to the area of LOK is 2a^2/b h

<h3>How to determine the ratio</h3>

From the image given, we can deduce the following;

KLMN is a square
LOK is a triangle

The formula for area of a square is

Area = a^2

Where, 'a' is the side

The formula for area of a triangle

Area = 1/ 2 base × height

Now, let's find the ratio

Ratio = area of KLMN/ area of LOK

Ratio = $\frac{a^2}{\frac{1}{2} bh}$

Ratio = $\frac{a^2}{\frac{bh}{2} }$

make the expression linear

Ratio = 2a^2/bh

The ratio of the area of square KLMN to the area of LOK is 2a^2/bh

Thus, the ratio of the area of square KLMN to the area of LOK is 2a^2/b h

Aliun [14]

Let x and y represent the numbers of gallons used by the 40 mpg and 35 mpg cars, respectively.
.. x +y = 40 . . . . . . . . . . .total consumption is 40 gallons
.. 40x +35y = 1525 . . . . total miles driven = 1525

Multiply the first equation by 40 and subtract the second.
.. 40(x +y) -(40x +35y) = 40(40) -(1525)
.. 5y = 75
.. y = 15
.. x = 40 -15 = 25

The 40 mpg car consumed 25 gallons.
The 35 mpg car consumed 15 gallons.

Find the value of 1<br> and 1/10-1/5

Answer:

9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

(1 1/10) - 1/5 = (1 1/10) -2/10 = 1 + (1/10 -2/10) = 1 -1/10 = 9/10

1.1 -0.2 = 0.9 = 9/10

What is the slope of the line that goes through -3,7 & -17,3

Natalka [10]

Point 1: (-3, 7)

Point 2: (-17, 3)

To find the slope, we need to use the slope formula which is as follows: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). We will plug in each x and y coordinate from our points above, respectively.

m = (3 - 7) / (-17 - - 3)

m = (-4) / (-14)

m = 2/7

The slope of the line that goes through (-3, 7) and (-17, 3) is 2/7.

Hope this helps!! :)

How do i solve 5y - 10 = -25?

viva [34]

So to find the answer you want to isolate the y. So the first thing you want to do is to move everything to the opposite side of the = sign. You start by adding 10 to both sides.
10+ 5y -10 = -25 +10
5y = -15.
the tens cancel out on the left side and on the right you get left with -15/
Since y is being multiplied by 5 you always want to do the opposite so you divide by 5.
5y/5 = -15/5
y = -3
It's hard to explain but you just have to remember that what you do to one side you must do to the other to keep the equation balanced.
