Answer:

width= 2

Step-by-step explanation:

18 inches is the original height and we are now reducing that to 3 inches.

In order to do that, we have to divide 18 by 3 which equals 6.

Next, take the width of the rectangle, which is twelve and divide it by the scale factor of 6 which  equals 2.

Your final answers should be: width= 2

Two angle of a tranigle measure 55 and 20 what is the measure of the third angle
wariber [46]

Answer:

105 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. As such, where a, b and c are the angles of a triangle then

a + b + c = 180 ( all in degrees)

Given that two angles of a triangle measure 55 and 20, let the size of gthe 3rd be T then

55 + 20 + T = 180

simplify

75 + T = 180

Subtract 75 from both sides

T = 180 - 75

T = 105

Which of the following choices translates the sentence “the difference of three times a number and 20 is 13”?
evablogger [386]

Answer:

3x - 20 = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The word is signals the equal sign.

The difference of three times a number and 20 = 13

2. The word difference signals subtraction.

3. The phrase a number sigals that the number is unknown, so a variable should be used. In this case, I'll use x.

4. Three times that number = 3x.

The difference = subtraction.

3x-20=13
