Answer:

41 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We apply the theorem below:

If two similar triangles have a scale factor of a : b, then the ratio of their perimeters is a : b.

Let x be the perimeter of the smaller triangle

If the ratio of their heights is 6:5 and the perimeter of the larger triangle is 49.2 feet,

6:5=49.2:x

6/5=49.2/x

Cross multiplying

6x=49.2 X 5

6x=246

x=246/6=41

The perimeter of the smaller triangle is 41 feet

at a country concert,the ratio of number of the Boys to the number of girls is 2:7 if there are 250 more girls than boys how man
sergey [27]

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio is a fraction, so ratio of boys to girls would be written as [let boys be "b" and girls be "g"]:

\frac{b}{g}=\frac{2}{7}

Also, there are 250 more girls than boys, so we can write:

g = 250 + b

Lets substitute this into "g" of the ratio we wrote and cross mulitply and solve for b:

\frac{b}{g}=\frac{2}{7}\\\frac{b}{250+b}=\frac{2}{7}\\7b=2(250+b)\\7b=500+2b\\5b=500\\b=\frac{500}{5}=100

The number of boys = 100
