Answer:

7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of width to length of the known rectangle is 4 : 14 and this simplifies to 2 : 7.

The smaller similar rectangle will have the same ratio of 2 :7.

This can also be looked at another way. The second value in the ratio is 7/2 of the first value in the ratio and the first value is 2/7 of the second value.

Example:

7/2 * 2 = 7

Example:

2/7 * 7 = 2

Using proportions, the selling prices are given as follows:

1. $46.92.

2. $15.29.

3. $17.16.

4. $20,280.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

To find the selling prices, we have to multiply the original prices by either 1.02(2% sales tax) or 1.04(4% sales tax), hence they are given as follows:

  • 1. 46 x 1.02 = $46.92.
  • 2. 14.99 x 1.02 = $15.29.
  • 3. 16.50 x 1.04 = $17.16.
  • 4. 19500 x 1.04 = $20,280.

Answer: 38 Bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 19 people and each person needs 24 beads, the total number of beads needed is 19*24=456. Then if this total must be split up into groups of 12 beads, the answer would be 456/12=38.

Assoli18 [71]
The a point is refrected through the line y = x, the new point is found by interchanging the x and y-cordinate of the original point. i.e. if the original point is (a, b) and is refrected through the line y = x, the new point will be (b, a).
