I need help with this!!!!
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

  D:  2/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually when we talk about a point partitioning a segment, we are interested in the ratio of the first segment to the second:

  BC : CD = 2 : 2 = 1 : 1

Since this is not an answer choice, we need to "reverse engineer" the answer list to see if we can find an answer that corresponds to a reasonable interpretation of the question.

__

None of the segments is 3 units long, so neither of answer choices A or B makes any sense.

While segment BD is 4 units long, there is no segment that is 1 unit long, so answer choice C makes no sense, either.

There are segments that are 2 units long and a segment that is 4 units long, so if we interpret the question to be "what is the ratio of BC to BD?" then answer choice D is appropriate.

The figures below are similar.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

  a) 2.5

  b) 6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

For similar figures, the ratio of any corresponding linear dimensions is the same. The ratio of areas is the square of that.

<h3>Application</h3>

The ratio of linear dimensions, larger to smaller, is ...

  (30 yd)/(12 yd) = 2.5

<h3>a) Perimeter</h3>

Perimeter is a linear dimension, the sum of side lengths. The ratio of perimeters is 2.5.

<h3>b) Area</h3>

The ratio of areas, larger to smaller, is the square of the scale factor for side lengths:

  (2.5)² = 6.25

The ratio of the areas of the larger to smaller figure is 6.25.

What is the value of x?: -5x - 16 = 8x - 3
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

x = -13/3 or -4 1/3 or - 4.333...333

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x - 16 = 8x - 3

-16 = 8x - 3 - 5x

-16 + 3 = 8x - 5x

-13 = 3x

x = -13/3 or -4 1/3 or - 4.333...333

... represents that it has infinite amount of 3's
