Answer:

36 ft  

Step-by-step explanation:

A = lw

Data:

A = 864 ft²

 l = length of basement

w = ⅔l

Calculations:

864 = l × ⅔l

864 = ⅔l²

Multiply each side by 3:               2592 = 2l²

Divide each side by 2:                  1296 = l²

Take the square root of each side:     l = 36

The length of the basement is 36 ft.

Check:

w = ⅔l = 24 ft

864 = 36 × 24

864 = 864

<u>Shape two:</u>

7 - 3 = 4 (length of a side of the second shape)

4 x 2 = 8 cm squared

When the same whole number is added to both the numerator and denominator of $\frac{2}{5}$, the value of the new fraction is $\f
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Correct answer: x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If I saw your fractions right it's like this:

(2 + x) / (5 + x) = 2 / 3 => 3 (2 + x) = 2 (5 + x) => 6 + 3 x = 10 + 2 x

3 x - 2 x = 10 - 6  => x = 4

We will check

2 + 4 / 5+ 4 = 6 / 9  

When we divide both numerator and denominator

with 3 we get 2/3

God is with you!!!
