Make each a ratio, and set them equal to each other.
Larger rectangle = 3/5
smaller rectangle = x/3
3/5 = x/3
cross multiply
3/5(5)(3) = x/3(3)(5)
3(3) = x(5)
9 = 5x
Isolate the x, divide 5 from both sides
9/5 = 5x/5
x = 9/5
x = 1.8
1.8 in. is your answer

Answer:
C=0
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C. 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the total monthly sales.
We have been given that a salesperson earns a salary of $700 per month plus 2% of the sales. The salesperson want to have a monthly income of at least $1800.
This means that 700 plus 2% of total monthly sales should be greater than or equal to 1800. We can represent this information in an equation as:


Let us solve our inequality to find the monthly sales (x).
Subtract 700 from both sides of our inequality.

Divide both sides of inequality by 0.02.



Therefore, the total monthly sales must be greater than or equal to 55,000 and option C is the correct choice.
So you have a right angle triangle. You need to use trig for this, as you have two values you can figure out a third.
You know that you have
90 deg. angle
19 deg. angle
Therefor you have 71 deg. angle
sin19 = x/15
15sin19 = x
x = 2.2
Now do Pythagoras c^2-b^2=a^2
a = 14.8
So the sides are 2.2 and 14.8 units long. (If these numbers are wrong tell me and I'll edit answer)
1. added four to both sides
2. divided both sides by two
