perimeter = 2width + 2 length
102 = 2(x+9) + 2x
102 = 2x + 18 +2x
102 = 4x +18
84 = 4x
21 = x
Length = x = 21 inches
Width = x + 9 = 21 + 9 = 30 inches

Two similar triangles have corresponding sides with the same ratio.
A smaller triangle is showing the shadow of a person and the larger one is showing the shadow of a flag.

This question shows you how to determine the amount of money Mr. Leonard makes in 4 weeks. It takes his total salary, divides it by 52 (there are 52 weeks in a year), then multiplies it by 4 (you need 4 weeks worth of pay).
This amount is shown as $6769.24.
He must pay the agency 22% of this, so change 22% to 0.22 and multiply it by the amount he makes in 4 weeks.
0.22 x 6769.24 = $1489.23
Mr. Leonard must pay the agency $1489.23 after the first 4 weeks.
