Set up a proportion.
The total side of the “top” line is 8 + 10 = 18. The total side of the “bottom” line is 45. This makes the ratio 18/45.
Now we are trying to find the “larger” bottom segment, let it be x. Because the lines are parallel, the ratio of the “larger” top and bottom segments is equal to the ratio of the whole top and bottom lines.
So 18/45 = 10/x
Reduce 2/5 = 10/x
Cross multiply 2x = 50
Solve x = 25
Answer:
7519 is already in the simplest form. It can be written as 3.947368 in decimal form (rounded to 6 decimal places).

Step-by-step explanation:
First convert km to meters
143000 km = 143,000,000m = 1.43*10^8 m
Now convert 10 billion to scientific notation1 00
10 billion = 1 * 10^10
What this means is that 1 * 10^10 meters in outer space = 1 meter for the scale model.
Now show what the ratio is for
1.43*10^8
======== Divide by the denominator
1 * 10^10
1.43 * 10^(8 - 10)
1.43 * 10 ^ - 2 meters
Answer: 0.0143m or B
Answer:
a) ⅖+⅓ = 6/15 + 5/15 = 11/15
b) 5/9 - 1/2 = 10/18 - 9/18 = 1/18
