Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
I attached an image to aid the understanding of the question.
Looking at the image, we see that the 8 shaded parts are congruent, as affirmed in the question as well. And we are told that T = 3, this implies that the area of the square with T as it's side is 9ft². Since all the 8 squares are congruenrt, it means each square has its area to be 9. Therefore, the total area of the 8 shaded squares will be:

It remains the area of the shaded square with side S.
From the question, we have the following ratio:
I did not add ± because length is always positive, so the case of negative is eliminated.
Now the areas of S is 
Therefore, the total area of the shaded squares is

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
An Improper Fraction has a top number larger than (or equal to) the bottom number.
To convert a whole number -12 into an improper fraction we can divide the whole number by one to turn it into a temporary fraction.

Also we could multiply and divide -12 by another number greater than one, for example:

There are several ways we can write -12 in the improper fraction form.
The answer is y=(1/20)x^2
Answer:
1/5 or 0.2
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(p+3/5)=-4
Let's convert 3/5 to decimal form:
-5(p+0.6)=-4
Expand parentheses:
-5p-3=-4
Add -3 to both sides:
-5p=-1
Divide both sides by -5:
p=1/5 or 0.2
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 9 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Perimeter of ABCD = 27 units
Scale factor = 1 / 3
Find:
Perimeter of A'B'C'D'
Computation:
Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 1/3[Perimeter of ABCD]
Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 1/3[27]
Perimeter of A'B'C'D' = 9 units
