Answer:
C. ⁵/12= ²/x
Step-by-step Explanation:
Given that rectangle EFGH is similar to rectangle JKLM, it means the corresponding sides of both rectangles are similar, and as such the ratios if the corresponding sides of rectangle EFGH and rectangle JKLM would be equal.
Thus, EF/JK = FG/KL
Since, EF = 5; JK = 12; FG = 2; and KL= x, therefore, the proportion to use in finding x would be:
⁵/12= ²/x
Okay, don’t freak out. It’s more simple than it seems.
To find the area of this rectangle you use length x length
Let’s look for the length first
Use the bottom left and right points
(-2.25,-1) and (2.25,-1)
The length is a horizontal line so we use the x-coordinates. The distance from -2.25 to 2.25 is 4.5
Now let’s find the height. Let’s use the top left and bottom left coordinates.
(-2.25,4) and (-2.25,-1)
The height is a vertical line. The y-coordinates. Their difference is 5.
So 4.5 x 5 = 22.5
Answer: 3/4 because the line runs through the points (0,-2) and (4,1).

4 rows and 6 seashells in each row.
Row 1: 0 0 0 0 0 0
Row 2: 0 0 0 0 0 0
Row 3: 0 0 0 0 0 0
Row 4: 0 0 0 0 0 0
You add all of them together 6+6+6+6=24
Or you could do 6x4 and your answer would be 24
So the answer to the question is 24 seashells.
Answer:
one solution
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
3 (x-1) = 2x + 9
3x - 3 = 2x + 9
subtract 2x from each side of the equation:
x - 3 = 9
add 3 to each side:
x = 12
