Answer:
x = 40.
Step-by-step explanation:
The corresponding sides are in the same proportion so:
45/ 27 = 30/18 = x/24
Consider the last 2 fractions:
30/18 = x/24
5/3 = x/24 Cross multiply:
3x = 5 * 24
x = 120 / 3
x = 40.
Answer:
x = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
3x = 6x - 39 solve for x
They want to know the probability of landing in the blue and red section at the same time. In other words, they want to know the probability of landing in the purple section.
We'll need the area of the purple square. This square is 1.5 inches by 1.5 inches. This is because 4 - 2.5 = 1.5
So the purple square has an area of 1.5*1.5 = 2.25 square inches
Divide this over the total area of the largest square (which is 9x9) to get 2.25/81 = 0.02777... where the 7's go on forever
Round that to two decimal places. The final answer is 0.03
Side note: 2.25/81 is equivalent to the reduced fraction 1/36 (express 2.25/81 as 225/8100 and then divide both parts by the GCF 225)
This isn't a math question and should be in the science section. However, I will still answer the question. The answer is choice B.

Here's a further breakdown
A. False. The radiation or energy from the sun can travel through air or else you wouldn't feel the sun's rays. Also, plant life wouldn't be alive without that energy going through the air.
B. True. The rays travel through a vacuum of space. If they couldn't travel through space, then the same problem comes up as in choice A: the issue of not feeling the sun's rays.
C. False. They rays have different frequencies. Because there are many wavelengths (see choice D below), this means there are different frequencies. Recall that f = 1/w where f is the frequency and w is the wavelength.
D. False. The rays are made of different wavelengths. The visible light portion is what we can see, though there is a lot more to the electromagnetic spectrum (eg: ultraviolet light).

So once again, the answer is choice B
The answer will be 61,440
