Answer:
x=65/n where x is 1 book and n the number of books
Step-by-step explanation:
If n is the number of books, lets say 1 book is "x", then
nx=65
x=65/n
for example
n=1 then x=65
n=2 then x=65/2
n=3 then x=65/3
Y = 3x
so
if x = 5 then y = 15
if x = 10 then y = 30
so a = 10 and b = 15
answer is B. second choice
a = 10 and b = 15

Let the area of the original rectangle be A₁.
A₁ = (12 ft)(8 feet) = 96 ft²
To determine the area of the reduced triangle, let's compute the new dimensions first.
Length = 12 ft * 3/4 - 9 ft
Width = 8 ft *3/4 = 6 ft
Thus, the area of the new rectangle denoted as A₂ is
A₂ = (9 ft)(6 ft) = 54 ft
The ratio of the areas are:
A₂/A₁ = 54/96 = 9/16
The ratio of the sides are given to be 3/4.
Finally the ratios of the area to side would be:
Ratio = 9/16 ÷ 3/4 = 3/4
Therefore, the ratio of the areas is 3/4 of the ratio of the corresponding sides.
