the question in English
Draw a rectangle having the base congruent to the nine sevenths of the height.
Let
b-------> the base of rectangle
h-------> the height of rectangle
we know that
b=(9/7)*h-------> this is the equation to obtain the base of the rectangle for a given height
examples
1) for h=7 units
b=(9/7)*7-------->b=9 units
the dimensions are 9 units x 7 units------> see the attached figure
2) for h=5 units
b=(9/7)*5-------->b=(45/7) units
the dimensions are (45/7) units x 5 units
The answer in Italian
Facciamo
b-------> base del rettangolo
h-------> altezza del rettangolo
Noi sappiamo che
b=(9/7)*h-------> questa è l'equazione per ottenere la base del rettangolo per una determinata altezza
esempi
1) per h=7 units
b=(9/7)*7-------->b=9 units
le dimensioni sono 9 units x 7 units----->
vedere la figura allegata
2) per h=5 units
b=(9/7)*5-------->b=(45/7) units
le dimensioni sono (45/7) units x 5 units
The answer is the mean.
"For a data set, the arithmetic mean, also called the mathematical expectation or average, is the central value of a discrete set of numbers: specifically, the sum of the values divided by the number of values."- Wikipedia
First, you know that B is the mid point, meaning AB is equal to BC. Therefore, you can set up the equation: x+5=2x-11. Then, you solve for x. Once you are done solving, you should get 16. Hope this helps!
Answer:
The shaded area is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The shaded area is equal to the area of the large square minus the area of the two smaller squares
so

Calculate the shaded area
Remember that

substitute
