Ok so it's a proportion so this fraction is to this fraction. the smaller rectangle has sides 4 and 12. the larger one has 8 and x. so u set it up 4/12=8/x. the 4 and 8 r both the short sides so u want those on top and 12 and x r long sides so those on bottom. since that is not an answer option u can set it up as 8/4=x/12 because u still keep the variables of the same rectangle from being multipled with each other. so answer #2 is correct

What you have highlighted right now is correct. Because the rectangles are similar (proportional): l of rect 1 / l of rect 2 = w of rect 1 / w of rect 2

So, B. is the correct answer!

Big Mack buys meat for the family reunion cookout. He needs to buy 11 packagesof meat. A package of hotdogs costs $2.59, and a p
IgorC [24]

Hello!

Let's write some important information contained in the exercise:

• hotdogs: $2.59 (,x,)

,

• hamburgers: $5.29 (,y,)

He needs 11 packages. Let's write it:

• x + y = 11

He spent a total of $39.29. We can write it as:

• 2.59x + 5.29y = 39.29

Now, let's solve these two equations as a linear system:

\begin{cases}x+y=11\text{ equation A} \\ 2.59x+5.29y=39.29\text{ equation B}\end{cases}

First, let's isolate x in equation A:

\begin{gathered} x+y=11 \\ x=11-y \end{gathered}

Now, we will replace where's x by 11-y in equation B:

\begin{gathered} 2.59x+5.29y=39.29 \\ 2.59(11-y)+5.29y=39.29 \\ 28.49-2.59y+5.29y=39.29 \\ -2.59y+5.29y=39.29-28.49 \\ 2.7y=10.8 \\ y=\frac{10.8}{2.7} \\  \\ y=4 \end{gathered}

As I called the hamburgers as 'y', we know that he bought 4 packages of hamburgers.

If y varies directly as x, and y =15 as x= -3, find y for the x-value of 6.
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

the answer is -30.

Step-by-step explanation:

for each x-value, you will multiply it by -5 to get your y-value. i say this because if y-15 when x=-3, if you divide the x from y (so 15/-3) you get -5 which is the number in which y varies by. so you will take 6 and multiply it by -5 which gives you -30.

Can i get a step by step for this?
jonny [76]

Answer:

  • x = 85°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Sum of interior angles of any triangle is 180°:</u>

  • 52° + 43° + x = 180°
  • 95° + x = 180°
  • x = 180° - 95°
  • x = 85°

3. A square metal plate has a density of 10.2 g/cm3 and weighs 2.193 kg.
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

215 cm³

8.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

density = 10.2 g/cm³

mass = 2.193 kg = 2193g

a. Volume = mass / density

=2193 / 10.2

= 215 cm³

b. given that base area = 25cm²

volume = base area x thickness

thickness = volume / base area

= 215 / 25

= 8.6 cm
