Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>

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

Answer:

(a) 23, 35, 28, 33, 5, 12, 40, 25, 20, 18, 1, 16

1, 5, 12, 16, 18, 20 23, 25, 28, 33, 35, 40

n = 12 M = (20 + 23)/ 2 = 21.5

Q1 = (12 + 16) / 2 = 14 Q3 = (28 + 33) /2 = 30.5

(b) 22, 33, 25, 28, 5, 12, 35, 23, 20, 18, 1, 40, 16

1, 5, 12, 16, 18, 20 | 22 | 23, 25, 28, 33, 35, 40

n = 13 M = 22 Q1 = 14 Q3 = 30.5

(c) 20, 28, 23, 25, 3, 5, 33, 22, 18, 16, 40, 1, 35, 12

1, 3, 5, 12, 16, 18, 20, 22, 23, 25, 28, 33, 35, 40

n = 14 M = (20 + 22)/2 = 21 Q1 = 12 Q3 = 28

(d) 20, 28, 23, 25, 3, 5, 30, 22, 18, 40, 16, 35, 1, 33, 12

1, 3, 5, 12, 16, 18, 20 | 22 | 23, 25, 28, 30, 33, 35, 40

n = 15 M = 22 Q1 = 12 Q3 = 30

Find the area of a square that has a side that measures 5 mm.
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

25 mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the sides of a square are all equal, that means the length = 5 and the width = 5.

To find the area, you do length * width so for this square it would be 5 * 5 = 25.
