Finding a common denominator between 10 and 12 to be 10*12=120, we can multiply 9/10 by 12/12 and 3/12 by 10/10 to get 108/120 and 30/120 respectively. Dividing the 2 (as we want to know how much 3/12 or 30/120 goes into 9/10 or 108/120), we get
(108/120)/(30/120)=(108/120)*(120/30)=(108/30)=3+18/30 (as 30 goes into 90 3 times and 108-90=18)

How does changing the dimensions affect the area of a rectangle
natta225 [31]

Answer:Even when the dimensions aren't being squared in an area formula, they might be multiplied together, so a change in one dimension can have a significant effect on the area. For example, the area for a rectangle may be calculated using A = LW, where the length L is multiplied by the width W.

ANSWER FOR BRAINLIEST! 40 points! <br><br> PLEASE HELP I DONT WANT TO FAIL MATH.
aev [14]

Answer:

x = 15

x = 15

The answers should be the same because the triangles are similar.  The ratio of the sides are in the same proportion.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.  x              12

------- = --------------

20               16

using cross products

x*16 = 20 * 12

16x = 240

divide by 16 on each side

16x/16 = 240/16

x = 15


b  x              6

------- = --------------

20               8

using cross products

x * 8 = 6 * 20

8x = 120

divide each side by 8

8x/8 = 120/8

x = 15

c.  The answers should be the same because the triangles are similar.  The ratio of the sides are in the same proportion.

Working step by step I first see all my different groups then add them all together

12 - cats
15 - dogs
6 - both
9 - neither

12 students + 15 students + 6 students + 9 students = 42 students
therefore 42 students are in the class

16 + 10 + 3 + 12 = 41
