Answer:

\huge\boxed{x=28\ ft}

Step-by-step explanation:

If two rectangles are similar, then corresponding sides are in proportion.

Therefore we have the equation:

\dfrac{x}{42}=\dfrac{36}{54}

cross multiply

54x=(42)(36)\\\\54x=1512

divide both sides by 54

\dfrac{54x}{54}=\dfrac{15212}{54}\\\\x=28

Gonna do a little subbing here...

for 40 pgs of express proof reading....3 bucks per pg...c = 3
40(3) - 0.05(40(3)) = T
120 - 0.05(120) = T.....120 - 6 = T.....114 = T
so  express proofreading cost 114

for 40 pgs of basic proof reading....c = 3.95
40(3.95) - 0.05(40(3.95) = T
158 - 0.05(158) = T....158 - 7.9 = T.....150.10
so basic proof reading costs 150.10

for 40 pgs of extended proof reading....c = 5
40(5) - 0.05(40(5) = T
200 - 0.05(200) = T....200 - 10 = 190
so extended proof reading is 190

no need to go further....the extended proof reading is gonna be ur answer...the best quality of editing that keeps it at 190

Median : The value in a set which is most close to the middle of a range.

Mode : The value which occures most frequently in a data set.

12,9,12,11,10,18,7,19,13,19

What times what equals 21 but adds up to -22
attashe74 [19]
Let "what" and "what" be A and B

Put this in an algebraic equation
A * B = 21
A + B = -22

A must = -21 and B must = -1   , this is because two negatives multiply to make a positive

A + B = -22    ,  -21 +-1 = -22
