Answer:
10) C 4/9
11) B 24
Step-by-step explanation:
10) The area ratio is the square of the ratio of side lengths. The ratio of side lengths is ...
RS/LM = 6/9 = 2/3
Then the area ratio is ...
(2/3)² = 4/9
__
11) Using the result of question 10, the area of ∆RST is ...
(4/9)(54 in²) = 24 in²
Long Piece: x + 18
Short Piece: x
(x) + (x + 18) = 84
2x + 18 = 84
2x = 66
x = 33
Long Piece: x + 18 = (33) + 18 = 51
Answer: 33 meters and 51 meters
Answer:
x = 5.5 (Fraction 5 and one-half)
Step-by-step explanation:
18 - 7x = -20.5
-18 -18
-7x = -38.5
/-7 /-7
x = 5.5
