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

If the side length of a cube is 40 what is the surface area
Elodia [21]
A cube has 6 sides.

A cube is all made up of squares.

So, we need to find the area of one cube and multiply that by 6.

Length * width= area

40*40= 1,600

Multiply that by 6.

1,600*6= 9600

Whatever the unit is after that: in, feet, cm, m, etc- put that after the number with ^2.

9,600 (the unit) ^2

I hope this helps!

85 is greater than the difference of x and63
miss Akunina [59]
85 > x-63

This is how you would arrange the problem,


isolate the X by adding 63 to 85 to get 148,
Flip the inequality to <

resulting in X<148.

Answer:

. We assume, that the number 260 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 260 is 100%, so we can write it down as 260=100%.

4. We know, that x is 6.75% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.75%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 260=100%

2) x=6.75%

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

260/x=100%/6.75%

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 6.75% of 260

260/x=100/6.75

(260/x)*x=(100/6.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

260=14.814814814815*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.814814814815) to get x

260/14.814814814815=x

17.55=x

x=17.55

now we have:

6.75% of 260=17.55
