Answer:
C. ⁵/12= ²/x
Step-by-step Explanation:
Given that rectangle EFGH is similar to rectangle JKLM, it means the corresponding sides of both rectangles are similar, and as such the ratios if the corresponding sides of rectangle EFGH and rectangle JKLM would be equal.
Thus, EF/JK = FG/KL
Since, EF = 5; JK = 12; FG = 2; and KL= x, therefore, the proportion to use in finding x would be:
⁵/12= ²/x
392 boots. If you divide everything into "sets" of an unknown amount, there are 5 more "sets" of boots than sandals, also known as the 245 boots. So if you divide 245 by 5, you'll get the number of items in a "set". Then just multiply by 8 from the 8:3 ratio. If you check it, it will come out to 392 boots to 147 sandals, which I think is ridiculous since sandals are supposed to come in pairs so you should never have a odd number. But anyway, 392 - 147 = 245
Answer:
Greater than 21
Less than 45
Step-by-step explanation:
You add and subtract the two numbers you are given.
33 - 12 = 21
The third side has to be bigger than 21.
33 + 12 = 45
The third side has to be less than 45.
It can be written in one math sentence:
21 < x < 45
