Question 8:
Your choice is correct: two figures are similar if all correspondant sides are in the same ratio.
In your case, the figure on the right have correspondant sides which are all three times the figure on the left, since

So, the two figures are similar and their ratio is 1:3.
Question 9:
We follow exactly the same approach: let's see if the radii and the heights are in the same ratio: the radii are in ratio

While the heights are in ratio

So, the answer is again yes, they are similar, and the ratio is 1.6.
Perimeter of a rectangle can be represented by 2* length + 2 * width
We can represent the width with the variable x
We can represent the length by the expression 3x-1
So, now we can make a forumla and solve
2(3x-1) + 2(x) = 30
6x-2+2x = 30
8x = 32
x = 4 is the width of the rectange.
Now we find the length
3(4)-1
11 = Length

Cindy = 152
Step-by-step explanation:
a + b + c = 285
a = b - 15
c = 2b + 4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find out how long it takes for the rocket to hit the ground, we only need set that position equation equal to 0 (that's how high something is off the ground when it is sitting ON the ground) and factor to solve for t:

Factor that however you are factoring in class to get
t = -3.1 seconds and t = 25.9 seconds.
Since time can NEVER be negative, it takes the rocket approximately 26 seconds to hit the ground.
