Answer:
(b) 1:9
(c) 1:8
Step-by-step explanation:
(b) x*y : kx*ky, so 1:k² with k=3 is 1:9
(c) Assuming the rectangles get a z dimension, the volumes would have a ratio of xyz : xkykzk = xyz : xyzk³ = 1 : k³. With k=2 that is 1:8. But the z was never introduced so this is a bit inconclusive.
Answer:
The length is 28 and the width is 11
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, we can make the width as x.
Since the length is 5 less than 3 times the width, it's going to be 3x - 5
So now we've got the length and width, just need to find the perimeter, which is all the sides added up together. They already gave us the perimeter, so we just have to solve the equation:
2(3x - 5) + 2x = 78
6x - 10 + 2x = 78
8x - 10 = 78
8x = 88
x = 11
x = 11, but remember, x is the width, not the length. Since we already found what x is, we just have to plug it into the equation of:
3x - 5
3 × 11 - 5
33 - 5 = 28
Answer: Length = 28 (don't forget to add the unit if there is one)
Answer:
D. 4 23/24
Step-by-step explanation:
1 7/8 = 1 21/24
6 5/6 = 6 20/24
6 - 1 = 5
20 - 21 = -1
5 - 1/24 = 4 23/24
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I just took the test, the correct answer is .. 31.5 in.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The number = x
Three more than the number = x + 3
twice the number = 2x
which means:
2x + 3 < -13
2x + 3 -3 < -13 -3 (subtract 3 from both sides)
2x < -16
2x/2 < -16/2 (divide 2 from both sides)
x < -8
