Make each a ratio, and set them equal to each other.
Larger rectangle = 3/5
smaller rectangle = x/3
3/5 = x/3
cross multiply
3/5(5)(3) = x/3(3)(5)
3(3) = x(5)
9 = 5x
Isolate the x, divide 5 from both sides
9/5 = 5x/5
x = 9/5
x = 1.8
1.8 in. is your answer
hope this helps
Answer:
<h2>3x - y + 7 = 0</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

m - slope
b - y-intercept
Put the given y-intercept b = 7 and the coordinates of the point (-2, 1) to the equation:
<em>subtract 7 from both sides</em>
<em>divide both sides by (-2)</em>

We have the equation:

Convert it to the general form
:
<em>subtract 3x and 7 from both sides</em>
<em>change the signs</em>

So the Pythagorean triplet is 8,15and 17
