Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use proportions to solve.
Corresponding sides have same ratio.
<u>Question 1</u>
- (6x + 3)/17 = (8x - 1)/21
- 21(6x + 3) = 17(8x - 1)
- 126x + 63 = 136x - 17
- 10x = 80
- x = 8
<u>Question 2</u>
- (x + 8)/21 = 32/28
- x + 8 = 21*8/7
- x + 8 = 24
- x = 24 - 8
- x = 16
To determine the ratio, we need to know the formula of the area of an hexagon in terms of the length of its sides. We cannot directly conclude that the ratio would be 3, the same as that of the ratio of the lengths of the side, since it may be that the relationship of the area and length is not equal. The area of a hexagon is calculated by the expression:
A = (3√3/2) a^2
So, we let a1 be the length of the original hexagon and a2 be the length of the new hexagon.
A2/A1 = (3√3/2) a2^2 / (3√3/2) a1^2
A2/A1 = (a2 / a1)^2 = 3^2 = 9
Therefore, the ratio of the areas of the new and old hexagon would be 9.
Answer:18 19 20
Step-by-step explanation:"Consecutive" means that the integers will follow each other in value, for example: 1, 2, 3 or 4, 5, 6. Also, no decimals are needed here because "integers" are whole, counting numbers. Here is the set up: Let x= the first integer Then X+1= 2nd consecutive integer and x+2= 3rd .
Suppose that x=1 x+1= 1+1=2 and x+2=1+2=3 However, you need specific consecutive numbers whose sum is 57. Remember that sum means to add:
x+ (x+1) + (x+2) = 57 Addition of all 3 consecutive numbers Now solve for x
and substitute into each part to come up with the three integers:
3x + 3= 57 3x=54 x=54/3 = 18 x=18, x+1= 18+1=19 x+2=18+2=20
Check your answer: 18+19+20=57 57=57 Check
