It is equal because every 2000 pounds is 1 ton and 18000lb divided by 2000 equals 9.
Answer:
Hello!
After reviewing the problem you have provided I have come up with the correct solution:
x= 9
Step-by-step explanation:
To come up with this solution you have to first realize that the smaller triangle is a proportionally scaled down version of the entire larger triangle! (I will show what I mean in a linked picture)
So after we have realized that the smaller triangle is a scaled down version of the larger one, we can then create a formula or ratio to calculate the value of the missing side of the larger triangle (being x+6=??).
To create the formula/ratio I divided 10inches by 4inches. Thus the larger triangle is 2.5 times larger than the smaller one.
I then use this ratio to figure out the missing length of the larger triangle by doing:
6inches x 2.5 = 15inches.
I then inputed the 15inches into the formula of the missing side:
x+6=15
Subtracted 6 from both sides to simplify, and came up with the solution!
x=9
Let me know if this helps!
The area of a circle is equal to:

r = 1/2 the diameter
1/2 of 14 is 7
7 squared is 49
<em><u>The area is 49π</u></em>
Answer:
A = 108 in.²
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure can be decomposed into 3 rectangles.
✔️Area of rectangle 1 = L*W
L = 8 in.
W = 6 in.
Area = 8*6 = 48 in.²
✔️Area of rectangle 2 = L*W
L = 10 in.
W = 4 in.
Area = 10*4 = 40 in.²
✔️Area of rectangle 3 = L*W
L = 5 in.
W = 4 in.
Area = 5*4 = 20 in.
✔️Area of the irregular figure = 48 + 40 + 20 = 108 in.²
There are five parts to the ratio:
18 ÷ 5 is 3.6.
Therefore you need 10.8l of white paint and 7.2l of blue paint.
10.8l * 2.80 = £30.24
7.2l * 3.50 = £25.20
The total is <span>£55.44</span>
