Answer:
m = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Assuming these shapes are similar, you can set up a proportion:</u>
<u />
<u>→Cross multiply:</u>
<u />
<u>→Divide 24 by 8:</u>
m = 3
It is a rectangle so its opposite sides are congruent. Because they are congruent we can set them equal to each other and solve for x.
40 = 5x + 10
30 = 5x
6 = x
So the value of x is 6.
Car:
19 + 28 +17 +39 + 22 + 44 + 56 = 225
225/7 = 32.14
bus:
32 + 26 +25 + 40 + 39 + 49 + 22 = 233
233/7 = 33.29
the bus has the higher average
