Answer:

1 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since in this problem they only gave the area and width, we have to make an equation. So 1/2 * x = 3/4, x represents the length which is unknown and 1/2 represents the width. Now we solve the equation. the 3/4 divided by 1/2 equals 3/4 * 2 = 6/4 or 1 1/2

Hope this helped :)

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

We first are going to flip the equation around.

So instead of 9 times x = -36 we'll do 36/9. 36/9 = -7.

Also you will kind of know it will be a negative number from the beginning since it's -36.

I don't know if that last part makes any sense, but I hope this helps you!

5 times as large

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the two numbers tells you how many times as large one is as the other:

$\dfrac{5\cdot 10^5}{1\cdot 10^5}=\dfrac{5}{1}\cdot\dfrac{10^5}{10^5}=5$
