Set up a ratio. But first convert the height of the puzzle to feet so we are comparing the same unit of measure.


STEP 1
convert 24 inches to feet

12 inches= 1 foot

24 inches= 2 feet


STEP 2
set up ratio.

= 2 feet/556 feet or 2:556
simplify both by 2

= 1 ft/278 ft or 1:278


ANSWER: 1/278 or 1:278 (can be written either way)

Hope this helps! :)

Factor the polynomial completely.<br><br> 9g^2 - 30gh + 25h^2
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a perfect square.

It factors into (3g - 5h)^2

or (3g - 5h)(3g - 5h)

Make sure it is correctly factored.

3g*3g = 9g^2

3g * - 5h  = - 15gh

-5h*3g = - 15gh

5h*5h = 25h^2

These four terms add to 9g^2 - 15gh - 15gh + 25h^2 = 9g^2 - 30gh + 25h^2 which is exactly what you started with.

Help with #2 it has to do with number 1 that is the polygon you need to find the area of it.
Katena32 [7]
Okay, it's the equation to how find area any other way. A=L×W

This means *picture above*

So then you count over each line meaning 1.
This means L=9 and a 1/2. Since its in between the 2 an 3 on the x-axis.
Now for W or width. It equals 3 since you can count 2 lines and one either ends of the polygon is 1/2 each this creates one when added together.

All you do from there is multiply 9 and 3. This should give you A=area.

The sum of two numbers is 30. the first number is 1/5 of the second number. what are the numbers?
bonufazy [111]
Same question
x+y=30
x is 1/5 of y
x=y/5
subsitute
y/5+y=30
multily both sidse by 5
y+5y=150
add
6y=150
divide both sides by 6
y=25
subsitute
x=y/5
x=25/5
x=5
the numbers are 5 and 25
