Let's start with what we know:
Smaller canvas:
Length (

) = 3ft
Width (

) = 5ft
Larger canvas:
Length (

) = ?
Width (

) = 10ft
Since these are similar rectangles, we can cross-multiply to calculate the missing length. Here's that formula:

So let's plug it all in from above:

Now we cross multiply by multiplying the top-left by the bottom-right and vice versa:


Now divide each side by 5 to isolate


The 5s on the right cancel out, leaving us with:

So the length of the larger canvas is
6 ft
Answer:
x
=
10
,
y
=
2
Step-by-step explanation:
What must be true is the expression will actually be adding 10 + (+ x), because of the two marks you have to make when subtracting by a negative.
The subtraction sign is also the negative sign. So in this case, the expression is also saying -x, which means there is two negative signs.
A double negative is a positive, so in this case the x will be turned to a positive integer.
If this is still too confusing, she can plug in a number to replace x. Let’s try it with -2:
Ex. 10 - (-2)= 12.
The two negative signs turn into one positive sign, AKA an addition sign. So, the above expression can be simplified as 10 + 2, or 12.

The given figure is a sphere :
