Answer:

5:2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that triangles △ABC and △DFG are similar. The lengths of the two corresponding sides are 1.4 m and 56 cm.

Since both triangles are similar, therefore all corresponding sides will have same proportion.

Let us find proportion of corresponding sides of both triangles.

1 meter = 100 centimeter

1.4 meter = 1.4* 100 centimeters = 140 centimeters.

\frac{\text{Side of triangle ABC}}{\text{Side of triangle DFG}}=\frac{140}{56}

\frac{\text{Side of triangle ABC}}{\text{Side of triangle DFG}}=\frac{5}{2}

The ratio of sides of △ABC to sides of△DFG is 5:2.

Since perimeter of a triangle is sum of lengths of three sides of the triangle and all sides of both triangle have the ratio 5:2, therefore, their perimeters will be in same ratio, that is 5:2.

A $50.00 pair of shoes is discounted 20%. If sales tax is 8%, what is the amount of tax paid?
sleet_krkn [62]
Since sales tax goes after the discount, it would be 3 dollars and 20 cents. Taking 50 dollars and 20% is discounted (50*.2), which would be 10 dollars taken off. It would be 40 dollars shoes and then you apply sales tax by multiplying 40 by .08, giving you the amount of tax paid.
