Answer:

Part 1) Option A. x ft

Part 2) Option C. Cross multiply.

Part 3) Option A. 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Which side of the original parallelogram corresponds to  the 6 ft side of the enlarged parallelogram?

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional, and this ratio is called the scale factor

The corresponding sides in this problem are

1/3 ft and 8 ft

x ft and 6 ft

therefore

Option A. x ft

Part 2) What is the second step in solving the proportion?

step 1

The proportion is equal to

\frac{(1/3)}{8}=\frac{x}{6}

step 2

Solve the proportion

Cross multiply

\frac{1}{3} (6)=x(8)

Part 3) What is the value of the missing measure?

Solve the proportion for x

\frac{1}{3} (6)=x(8)

2=x(8)

Divide by 8 both sides

\frac{2}{8}=x

Simplify

x=\frac{1}{4}

True [87]

Here the word "borrowed" is taken as Principal, given rate is 1% and time taken is 3/4 yrs.

so by using formula,

I = P*T*R / 100

 = 25000*3/4*1 / 100

 = 187.5

So the answer must be 187.5.

You have lunch at an Italian restaurant. The cost of lunch before tax is
coldgirl [10]

7/100 = 0.07

0.07 * 12.5 = 0.88

20/100 = 0.2

0.2 * 12.5 = 2.5

2.5 + 0.88 = 3.38

3.38 + 12.50 = 15.88

You spend a total of $15.88.

A camera manufacturer spends $2,250 each day for overhead expenses plus $6 per camera for labor and materials. The cameras sell
andriy [413]
2250 + 6x = 16x
2250 = 16x - 6x
2250 = 10x
2250/10 = x
225 = x <=== they must sell 225 cameras to equal daily costs

if they increase production by 50.......x = 225 + 50 = 275
16(275) - 6(275) - 2250 = 4400 - 1650 - 2250 = 4400 - 3900 = 500.
Their daily profit would be $500.
