Given:

The two cylinders are similar. So, their corresponding dimensions must be in proportion.

$\frac{\textrm{Radius of small cylinder}}{\textrm{Radius of larger cyclinder}}=\frac{12}{18}=\frac{2}{3}=2:3$

$\frac{\textrm{Height of small cylinder}}{\textrm{Height of larger cylinder}}=\frac{20}{30}=\frac{2}{3}=2:3$

Therefore, the similarity ratio of the smaller to the larger similar cylinders is 2 : 3.

Which of the following is the missing reason? Statements Reasons two thirds times x plus 7 equals negative 5 Given 2x 21 = â’15

pentagon [3]

The correct option is B. Distributive property

Given,

$\frac{2}{3} x+7=-5\\$

On solving the above equation,

multiplying both sides by 3 we, get

$2x+21=-15$

now subtracting 21 from both the sides,

$2x=-36\\$

dividing both the sides by 2 we get,

$x=-18$

Since in the above steps we follow all the giving property except the distributive property.

Hence the correct option is B. Distributive property.
