What is the value of a?

1 answer:

7 0

Because the triangles are similar, we can form the proportion 3/4 = 4/a

Cross multiply and solve for 'a'

3/4 = 4/a
3*a = 4*4
3*a = 16
3*a/3 = 16/3
a = 16/3
a = (15+1)/3
a = (15/3)+(1/3)
a = 5+(1/3)

The answer is choice B)

A fence is being built around a rectangular garden. The length of the garden is 35 feet, and the total fencing used to enclose t

liraira [26]

The garden's width is 45. We know this because
$35 \times 2$
(length)
$35 \times 2 + 2x = 160 \\$
35x2 is 70 and you need to neutralize that by taking away 70 from both sides.
$160 - 70 = 90$
$2x = 90$
Now divide by 2 on both sides to neutralize the 2 times x.
$90 \div 2 = 45$
meaning that leaves us with
$x = 45$
