Y=5 -- x =17
so y= 5*10/17= 50/17 when x = 10
First find the area of the rectangle by multiplying the length and width of the rectangle, so 12 x25=300. Then find the area of the triangle, which is length x height/ 2. So 8 x 25=200/2=100. Then add the two answers together to get 400.
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a proportion problem.
Let's make her Length x and her height 1/3 x.
1/3 x = 20 inches
x = 6 2/3 inches
Molly's height is 6 2/3 inches.
Check it.
6 2/3 x 3 = ? (change the mixed number to a fraction)
20/3 x 3 = ? (multiply)
60/3 = ? (divide)
20 inches. Yes, it checks.
