Answer:

$x=\frac{60}{7}\ units$ or $x=8\frac{4}{7}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

The two rectangles show are similar. Find the value of x

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem

$\frac{20}{14}=\frac{x}{6}$

solve for x

$x=\frac{20}{14}(6)$

$x=\frac{120}{14}\ units$

simplify

$x=\frac{60}{7}\ units$

convert to mixed number

$x=\frac{60}{7}\ units=\frac{56}{7}+\frac{4}{7}=8\frac{4}{7}\ units$

The year that it will be paid off can be dtermined by calculating how long it would take $6,200 to get to $24,000.

You can do that by dividing $24,000 by $6,200.

Assume the number of years for the car to be paid off is x:

24,000 / 6,200 = x years

When solved:

= 24,000 / 6,200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Issac and Isaiah born weighing 6 pounds 2 ounces and 5 pounds and 4 ounces.

1 Pound is equivalent to 16 ounces

Issac weighs

$\Rightarrow 6+\dfrac{2}{16}\ \text{Pounds}$

Isaiah weighs

$\Rightarrow 5+\dfrac{4}{16}\ \text{Pounds}$

Their combined weight is

$\Rightarrow 6+5+\dfrac{2}{16}+\dfrac{4}{16}\\\\\Rightarrow 11+\dfrac{6}{16}\ or\\\\\Rightarrow 11\ \text{pounds}\ 6\ \text{ounces}$

OleMash [197]

Solution:

Convert the fractions into improper fractions and solve.

9 1/2 ÷ 3 7/10
=> 19/2 ÷ 37/10
=> 19/2 x 10/37
=> 19 x 5/37
=> 95/37

=> 95/37 = 37/37 + 37/37 + 21/37
=> 1 + 1 + 21/37
=> 2 + 21/37
=> 2 21/37

The solution to the problem is 2 21/37.
