Answer: The area of rectangle WXYZ is 18 square inches

Step-by-step explanation: Since both rectangles are similar, then lines AD and BC has a common ratio with lines WZ and XY. If line line AD is 10 inches, and line XY is 5 inches, then the ratio of similarity is given as

Ratio = 10/5

Ratio = 2/1 (or 2:1)

However rectangle ABCD has its area as 70 square inches, which means the other side is given as

Area = L x W

70 = 10 x W

70/10 = W

7 = W

Therefore the width of the other rectangle is determined as,

10/5 = 7/W

10W = 5 x 7

10W = 35

Divide both sides of the equation by 10

W = 3.5

Having calculated the width of the other rectangle as 3.5, the area is now determined as

Area = L x W

Area = 5 x 3

Area = 17.5

Rounded off to the nearest integer, the area equals 18 square inches

The table shows the age and finish time of ten runners in a half marathon.
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Left box: Outlier in this data set is (57,132)

Right box: because the finish time looks faster than expected for the age.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given table shows the age and finish \ time of 10 runners.

It is clear that people of age around 35 are finishing at around 142 \ minutes

and person with older age takes longer to finish.

One person of age 57 finishes in 175 \ minutes , that looks as expected.

Another person of same age (57) finishes it too fast which is unexpected.

Therefore (57,132) is an outlier, because it looks a faster finish as per expected.

y = 2

2x+1 = 3y-1

or, 2x = 3×2-1-1

or, 2x = 4

or, x = 2
