Answer:
b=9
x=5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
find the common ration
AB is 6, and XY is 3 (they are the corresponding sides)
ratio is 2 to 1 (6/3=2/1)
AC corresponds with YZ
XY is 4.5 so b is 4.5*2=9
ZY corresponds with CB
CB is 11, since XYZ is the smaller divide by 2 instead of multiplying by 2
Whole
so think of it as a interger
So we have lengths a and b and are given:
2a+2b = 66 => a+b = 33 => a= 33-b
a*b = 272
plug in one into the other:
(33-b)b = 272 => -b^2 +33b - 272 = 0
Can be factored as (b-16)(b-17) = 0, if you don't "see" this immediately, use the well known abc formula to find b.
So a=16 and b=17 or vice versa.
Answer: #64, A. #67, A. #68, C
Step-by-step explanation:
#64
0.96/6= 0.16
2.4/16= 0.15
32= 0.18
16 oz is the least
#67
100/20=5
3*5=15
SO, it's 15%.
#68
Divide
$430/43= $10
$594/54= $11
Andrew= $8
So, Darren makes the most.
