Pentagons STUVW and XYZAB are similar with XY=32, YZ=36, ST= 4c + 2 and TU= 5c + 2, find the length of ST

Answer:

ST = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the pentagons are similar, the ratio between a pair of sides of one pentagon is the same ratio for the similar pair of sides of the second pentagon, so we have that:

XY / YZ = ST / TU

32 / 36 = (4c + 2) / (5c + 2)

8 / 9 = (4c + 2) / (5c + 2)

8*(5c + 2) = 9*(4c + 2)

40c + 16 = 36c + 18

4c = 2

c = 0.5

So the length of ST is:

ST = 4c + 2 = 4*0.5 + 2 = 4

Jason is building a 1 : 180 scale model of a real castle. his model has a rectangular base that is 3 feet wide and 4 feet long.w
balu736 [363]
The area of the actual castle would be 388,800 sq. ft.

We would multiply each of the sides of the scale model both by 180 to find the side lengths of the actual castle.

So...
180 x 4 = 720
180 x 3 = 540

If Area is equal to Length Times Width, all thats left to do is to multiply the two sides together.

720 x 540 = 388,800

Hope this helped! :D

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the bottom line of the chart.

He sold 41 sides of French fries and 40 sides of onion rings.

41 + 40 = 81

Since he sold a total of 81 sides with bacon cheeseburgers, that means he sold a total of 81 bacon cheeseburgers.

We have a ratio:

81 bacon cheeseburgers to 40 sides of onion rings

Now he sold 120 bacon cheeseburgers, so we set up a proportion to find the number of sides of onion rings. Let the unknown number be x.

81 burgers is to 40 sides as 120 burgers is to x sides

81/40 = 120/x

We solve for x by cross multiplying.

81x = 40 * 120

81x = 4800

x = 4800/81 = 59.3

That means he serves 59 sides of onion rings.

Each serving of onion rings is half pound.

59 * 0.5 = 29.5

For 120 bacon cheeseburgers, he serves approximately 29.5 lb of onion rings.
