The answer would be 12 3/4 because when you continue use the pattern that is used you end up with your answer! Hope this helps
The new parking lot must hold twice as many cars as the previous parking lot. The previous parking lot could hold 56 cars. So this means the new parking lot must hold 2 x 56 = 112 cars
Let y represent the number of cars in each row, and x be the number of total rows in the parking lot. Since the number of cars in each row must be 6 less than the number of rows, we can write the equation as:
y = x - 6 (1)
The product of cars in each row and the number of rows will give the total number of cars. So we can write the equation as:
xy = 112 (2)
Using the above two equations, the civil engineer can find the number of rows he should include in the new parking lot.
Using the value of y from equation 1 to 2, we get:
x(x - 6) = 112 (3)
This equation is only in terms of x, i.e. the number of rows and can be directly solved to find the number of rows that must in new parking lot.
The answer is 82. hope this helps!
So the greatest common factor of 40 and 16 is 8
40/8 : 16/8
5:2
The simplest form of the ratio 40:16 is 5:2

Answer:
The larger angle is 54°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Let the angles be: θ and α where
θ > α
Sum = 72
α : θ = 1 : 3
Required
Determine the larger angle
First, we get the proportion of the larger angle (from the ratio)
The sum of the ratio is 1 + 3 = 4
So, the proportion of the larger angle is ¾.
Its value is then calculated as:.
θ = Proportion * Sum
θ = ¾ * 72°
θ = 3 * 18°
θ = 54°
