Your question is not clear, but it looks as though you want to know how Brie can make a similar sandbox with base = 8ft.

Answer:

For Brie to make a similar sandbox, he must use a base = 8ft, and height = (8/3)ft

Step-by-step explanation:

It is possible for Brie to make a similar triangular sandbox with base = 12ft and height = 4ft.

All he must ensure is that the ratio of base to height of the original sandbox is the same ratio of base to height of the one he is trying to make.

The original sandbox is 12:4

Because he wants to use a base = 8ft, the sandbox he is trying to make is 8:x

Where x is the height of the sandbox he is trying to make.

Then for these sandboxes to be similar, the ratio 12:4 = 8:x

=> 12/4 = 8/x

12x = 8 × 4

12x = 32

x = 8/3

The height must be (8/3)ft

Jimmys garden has a length of 2b
GrogVix [38]

Answer: 18b + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Length: 2b + 4

Width: 7b + 2

I assumed the garden is a rectangle shape since the length and width are different.

Perimeter = 2( L + w)

Then we just plug the values in.

2 (2b + 4 + 7b + 2)

2 (9b + 6) = 18b + 12

So, the equation for the perimeter of Jimmy's garden will be 18b + 2.
