We need to compute for the length of each trophy given that one trophy is 5 inches wider than the other.
Let x be the length of the first trophy.
Let x+5 be the length of the second trophy
The solution is shown below:
x + (x + 5) = 17
x + x + 5 =17
2x =17 -5
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x=6 (for the first trophy)
x + 5 = 6+5 = 11 (for the second trophy)

The first trophy is 6 inches wide while the second trophy is 11 inches wide.

Can someone please help me on this question? Use the following diagram to find the fraction representing each collection of dots
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

  a.  4/7

  e.  3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

For each part of the question, count the dots that meet the first requirement, and count the dots that meet the "fraction of ..." requirement. The desired fraction is the ratio of these numbers. In the answers above, we have reduced the fractions to lowest terms, but the question does not seem to require that.

__

a. The desired fraction is ...

  (dots in the triangle)/(all dots) = 16/28 = 4/7

__

e. (dots in the rectangle not in the circle)/(dots in the rectangle) = 9/12 = 3/4
