Answer:

7.6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the height to the width of a packaging label is 5 to 19, that is,

h/w = 5/19 [1]

If the height of the label is 2 inches, and its width is unknown (x), that is,

h/w = 2 in/x [2]

We can set up a proportion with [1] and [2],

5/19 = 2 in/x

We use the cross product property of proportions.

5 × x = 19 × 2 in

x = 19 × 2 in/ 5 = 7.6 in

The width is 7.6 inches.

Height/width=5/19
5/19=2/x
(5)(x)=(19)(2)
5x=38
5/5x=38/5
x=38/5in or 7.6in

Answer:

B) 24 p-35

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step :1</u>

<u>A</u>pply distributive property  a.(b+c) = a.b+a.c

Given data 1+4(6 p-9)

                                 = 1+4.6 p - 4.9

multiply

                                 = 1+ 24 p - 36

subtracting

                                 = 24 p - 35

here is the image of triangle ABC and its dilation using Center D and scale factor 2. Why is B'C' on the same line as its corres
GaryK [48]

Since only the lengths increase by scale factor,  B'C' on the same line as its corresponding side segment BC​ .

<u>What is the Dilation?</u>

Math definition of dilation Resizing an object is accomplished through a change called dilation. The objects can be enlarged or shrunk via dilation. A shape identical to the source image is created by this transformation. The size of the form does, however, differ.

The following are the properties of dilation of the triangle:

1)measures of the angles will not change

2)The sides  of the image of the triangle are multiplied  by the scale factor 2.

So,

A'B'=2AB

B'C'=2BC

A'C'=2AC

Since only the lengths  increase by scale factor,  B'C' on the same line as its corresponding side segment BC​ .

4x - 2 = 3x + 3<br> Solve for X<br><br> Please show all your work.
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

x=5

Explanation:

We need to get x to stand by itself on one side of the equation.

4x-2 = 3x+3  ← add 2 to each side

4x = 3x+5 ← subtract 3x from each side

x = 5 ← final answer
