Well, the enlargement would be 3, because 15/5 is 3. So, the new measurements are no 9x15in.

What is the area of the figure?

xeze [42]

12 + 12 = 24

15 + 15 = 30

9 + 9 = 18

3 + 3 = 6

3 + 3 = 6

30 + 20 + 10 = 60

8 + 4 = 12

6 + 6 = 12

60 + 20 = 80

80 + 4 = 84

The area of the figure is 84, I believe.

Three numbers are in the ratio 6:3:1, and the sum of these numbers is 420. If the first number is reduced by 50%, and the second

Rachel is making nachos for a party. The recipe calls for 2/3 cup of cheese for each plate of nachos. Part A: How many full plat

crimeas [40]

Part A:

We need to divide

5 ÷ 2/3

5/1 ÷ 2/3

5/1 * 3/2

15/2 or 7 1/2 plates of nachos.

Part B:

If Rachel can make 7 1/2 plates of nachos with 5 cups of cheese we need to multiply and subtract.

ma2/3 * 9 = 18/3 or 6 cups of cheese to make 9 plates

6 - 5 = 1 more cup of cheese she needs to make 9 plates

Best of Luck!

I hope this helps you

n!/(n-3)!=3.n!/(n-2)!

3. (n-3)!=(n-2)(n-3)!

3=n-2
