Answer:
3.75 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the frame is 3 times the width.
Let the width be x.
The length will be 3x.
Kyle uses 10 feet of wood to make the frame. This means that the perimeter is 10 feet.
The perimeter of a rectangle is:
P = 2(L + W)
=> 10 = 2(3x + x)
=> 10/2 = 4x
5 = 4x
=> x = 5/4 = 1.25 feet
The width is 1.25 feet. The length is therefore:
1.25 * 3 = 3.75 feet
EF = 50 in.
In similar figures, corresponding sides are proportional. We use the similarity statement ABCD~EFGH to write a proportion:

Cross multiply the proportion:
45*x = 75*30
45x = 2250
Divide both sides by 45:
45x/45 = 2250/45
x = 50
Answer:19.625
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Wally's age now
Then, 3x = Jose's age now
Wally's age 5 years from now = x+5
Jose's age 5 years from now = 3x+5
(x+5) + (3x+5) = 42
4x + 10 = 42
4x = 32 x = 8
Wally is 8 years old and Jose is 24.
