Ramos went to a pizza shop and spent half of his money on lunch. If Ramos had $4.50 left after lunch,how much money did he have

ankoles [38]

Because Ramos spent half of his money, he now has the other half of his money, which is $4.50. Therefore, he originally had:
$4.50* 2= $9.00

The final answer is $9.00~

What you have here is a situation with two <em>similar triangles. </em>The triangle in the lower left is similar to the triangle in the upper right - I've included an image with "cutouts" of those triangles so you can see the similarities. Similar triangles have a very important property: <em>the ratios of their corresponding sides are equivalent</em>. Here, we can set up a ratio between the sides of length 64 and x on the larger triangle, and the corresponding sides of length x and 36 on the smaller triangle. Setting the two equal to each other, we have

$\frac{64}{x}= \frac{x}{36}$

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 36 and x, we get

$64\cdot36=x^2$

finally, we take the square root of both sides of the equation to find x:

$\sqrt{64\cdot36}=x\\
\sqrt{64}\sqrt{36}=x\\
8\cdot6=x\\
48=x$
