Answer:

1 1/8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the sails are similar,  corresponding sides are in the same ratio, so we have the equation

:24/3 = 9/b     where  b = base of the souvenir boat.

Cross multiply:

24b = 9*3

b = 27/24

= 1 1/8 inches.

 Jamal works at a sporting goods store on the weekends. Suppose last weekend he worked
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

$8.8 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the equation is simple.

Time (hours) * Money (per hour) = Total

We know the time he worked for and the total amount he earned, so just replace in this equation and find the unknown number

12.5 * money = 110

To find the money he earns per hour we should just simply divide the total amount he earned by the hours he spent working

money = 110/12.5

money = 8.8$

You can also check it out to make sure it's correct.

If he earns 8.8$ per hour and worked for 12.5 hours how much he'll earn? Let's find out

8.8 * 12.5 =?

8.8 * 12.5 = 110, the same total amount so our solution must be correct.
