1.5 : x
Answer : Actual length = 2.4m
Question 15
5 : 8
x : 20
Answer : Actual length = 12.5m
Hope this helps. - M
Answer: y=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Similar basically means it's the same shape but bigger. Condiering how 16-9=7 which means each side is 7 bigger than the original shape. You subtract 7 from 12(side y) to get 5
The two quadrilaterals are given similar .
In any similar figure sides are in proportion.The second largest side of quadrilateral ABCD is 16 ft .Let the second longest side of quadrilateral EFGH be x ft. These sides will be in proportion to each other .
The second shortest side of quadrilateral EFGH that is GF will be proportional to the third longest side of quadrilateral ABCD that is BC
We can form a proportion with the proportional sides:
To solve for x we cross multiply
12x=(16)(18)
12x=288
Dividing both sides by 12 we get
x=24.
The second longest side of quadrilateral EFGH is 24 ft.
Answer:(-27,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The four-fifths of a number, in this case, z is four times the number divided by z. That is 4z/5. When we add six to the product and equate the expression to 8, we get,
4z/5 = 8
The value of z from the equation is 10.
