Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

okay so Q in triangle GFQ is equal to Q in triangle QRS so that means S=G and F=R

line GF = line SR, so divide, (45 ÷ 27 = $1\frac{2}{3}$ )

line FQ = line RQ, so multiply line FQs length by $1\frac{2}{3}$ (24 × $1\frac{2}{3}$ = 40)

the length of QR, or x, is 40

I'm not for sure but I think it might be 4409 to the -6 so 4409^-6. I haven't done these in a while so I might be wrong!

Help meeee with this questionnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!

Given:

The scale factor between two circles is $\dfrac{2x}{5y}$ .

To find:

The ratio of their areas.

Solution:

We know that, all circles are similar.

The ratio of the areas of similar figures is equal to the ratio of squares of their corresponding sides or equal to the square of ratio of their corresponding sides.

The scale factor is the ratio of the corresponding sides.

Ratio of areas of circles = Square of scale factor between two circles

$\text{Ratio of areas of circles}=\left(\dfrac{2x}{5y}\right)^2$

$\text{Ratio of areas of circles}=\dfrac{(2x)^2}{(5y)^2}$

$\text{Ratio of areas of circles}=\dfrac{4x^2}{25y^2}$

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the exterior angle theorem, which means the measure of an exterior angle is the sum of its remote interior angles. In this case, this would mean:

x + 72 = 5x

Since this gives us an equation, we can just solve for x:

x + 72 = 5x

72 = 4x

x = 18
