Rectangle A is not similar to rectangle B because the ratio of length to width is different.

<h3>Ratios and proportions</h3>

A ratio means a comparison of two different quantities while proportion is an equality of two ratios.

Rectangle A:

  • Length= 10 cm
  • Width = 4 cm

Ratio of length to width = 10 : 4

= 10/4

= 5/2

= 5 : 2

Rectangle B:

  • Length = 5 cm
  • Width = 8 cm

Ratio of length to width = 5 : 8

Therefore, rectangle A is not similar to rectangle B because the ratio of length to width is different.

Find the area of the carpet tile. Then find the area covered by 120 carpet tiles.
weqwewe [10]

The area of the carpet is the amount of space it occupies

  • The area of the carpet tile is 256 square inches
  • The area covered by 120 tiles is 30720 squares inches

<h3>How to determine the carpet area</h3>

The dimension of the carpet tile is 16 inches by 16 inches

So, the area is:

Area = 16 * 16

Evaluate the product

Area = 256

Hence, the area of the carpet tile is 256 square inches

For 120 carpet tiles, the area is:

Area = 120 * 256

Area = 30720

Hence, the area covered by 120 tiles is 30720 squares inches

The surface area for a rectangular prism with a square base is SA=2s2+4sh.
torisob [31]
We know that
[surface area for a rectangular prism with a square base ]=2*s²+4*s*h

2*s²----> Is the surface area of the bases
4*s*h---> is the lateral area
s=2 units
h=4 units

[surface area for a rectangular prism with a square base ]=2*2²+4*2*4
surface area=8+32----> 40 units²

the answer is
40 units²

lana [24]

Answer:

2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

A prime number is a number that you don't get a whole number when divided by 2 but you do get a whole number when divided by prime numbers such as 3,5,7,11... Basically a number with two factors, it can only be divided by 1 or themselves. for example:

9/2 = 4.5 (this is not a whole number so it might be a prime.

9/3 = 3 (it works when divided by a prime number.

another:

8/2 = 4 (it gives a whole number when divided by 2 therefor, it can't be a prime number.

Answering:

There are 6 prime numbers at the top^^^^.
