Answer:

Width of brand name television = 18 inches

Height of brand name television = 36 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,  

Width of generic TV = 12 inches  

Height of generic TV = 24 inches

Let the width of brand name television = W

Let the height of brand name television = H

As given in question,  

Size of generic television = 2/3  of the size of the brand name television  

Thus,  

2/3 W = 12 inches  

2/3 H = 24 inches  

On solving the given equations, we get –  

W = (12 x 3)/2 = 18 inches

H = (24 x 3)/2 = 36 inches

Width of brand name television = 18 inches

Height of brand name television = 36 inches

<em>Variables, televisions, generic version, TV brand, dimensions </em>

For this case we have two televisions, one generic version and one brand. We know that the generic version represents \frac {2} {3}the size of the brand. We must define two variables that represent the dimensions of the brand TV, so we have:

  • x: Brand TV length
  • y: Brand TV width

Dimensions of the generic TV:

Length = 12\\Width = 24

So:

\frac {2} {3} x = 12

\frac {2} {3} y = 24

By clearing the variables we have:

x = 12 \frac {3} {2} = 18\\y = 24 \frac {3} {2} = 36

Thus, the dimensions of the brand TV are 18 inches by 36 inches

Answer:

 The dimensions of the brand TV are 18 inches by 36 inches

What's 6/7 written as a fraction with a denominator of 42? A. 36/42 b. 7/42 c. 42/42 d. 6/42
7nadin3 [17]

Pls mark Brainliest.

Answer:

A. 36/42

Step-by-step explanation:

What do you multiply 7 by to get 42?

6. That is what the denominator was multiplied by, and so, the equivalent fraction must have a numerator that is 6 times larger than the original.

6 is the numerator so the numerator of the equivalent fraction with denominator 42 must be 36 since 6 * 6 = 36/

A. 36/42
