Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The two rectangles are similar. The shapes are the same but the sizes are different. The ratio of the smaller rectangle to the bigger one is constant.

Comparing the sides of the two rectangles, we would take ratio of the width of both rectangles and equate it to ratio of the lengths of both rectangles. It becomes

3/5 : 12 = x : 20

(3/5)/12 = x/20

3/5 × 1/12 = x/20

3/60 = x/20

Cross multiplying

60 × x = 20 × 3

60x = 60

x = 60/60 = 1

The enlargement is in a scale of 5. Multiplying any length on the smaller rectangle by 5 will give the corresponding length of the bigger

Amy is eight years older than twice her cousin Alicia’s age. The sum of their ages is less than 32. Let x represent Alicia's age
horsena [70]
Ok, so amy is 8 years older than twice alica's age
if amy=y and alica=x
y=8+2x

and sum is less than 32
y+x<32

we can subsitute 8+2x for y in other equation
8+2x+x<32
8+3x<32
minus 8 both sides
3x<24
divide both sides by 3
x<8


the inequality is x<8

Which graph shows the solution to the inequality −2(2x+3)≤26?
krok68 [10]

Answer:

x≥−8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

−4x−6≤26

Step 2: Add 6 to both sides.

−4x−6+6≤26+6

−4x≤32

Step 3: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x/−4 ≤ 32/−4

x≥−8
