Answer:

5 1/3 or 5.33333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the scale factor, you must divide the two equal sides.

\frac{6}{8}

which equals

\frac{3}{4} or 0.75

Now, the way to get the value of x is to divide 4 by 3/4 0r 0.75

\frac{4}{0.75}

Which equals

5.333 repeating or 5 1/3

A set of numbers is shown below: {0, 0.6, 2, 4, 6} Which of the following shows all the numbers from the set that make the inequ
Lorico [155]
The given equality hold true when x = 2.

Put x = 2 in inequality.

2(2) + 3 = 4+3 = 7 = R.H.S.

For x = 4 and 6, L.H.S(2x+3) is greater than 7.

Hence for x = 2, 4 and 6, the above inequality holds true.

Hope this helps!

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

We can think of the 10 black bags as 2 sets of 5-black bags (10 divided into groups of 5; 10 / 5 ; is 2 groups/sets). So, we would also have two sets of 3 (3 x 2 = 6), or 6 bags.

5 : 3 = 10 : 6

(multiply both numbers by 2)

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

If each of the dimensions was enlarged by 3 units then the new length would be 5 and the new width would be 6. To find the area of the triangle we use the formula: A = L x W ÷ 2.


6 x 5 = 30ft2
30 ÷ 2 = 15ft2


Therefore the new area of the triangle would be 15ft2.
