Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
If two similar triangles have sides in the ratio a : b, then their areas are in the ratio a² : b².
We have the ratio:
Area of the smaler triangle = x
Area of the larger triangle = 567 cm²
Therefore we have the equation:
<h3>Answer: C. 63 cm²</h3>
Answer:
Large Box = 18.5
Small Box = 15.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = large box and y = small box
5x+6y=187
3x+2y=87
cancel out one equation
(5x+6y=187)•3=15x+18y=561
(3x+2y=87)•-5=15x+10y=435
15x+18y=561
-15x-10y=-435
–––––––––––
0+ 8y= 126
8y÷8 =126÷8
y=15.75
Substitute y into either original equation
3x+2(15.75)=87
3x+ 31.5=87
3x+ 31.5-31.5=87-31.5
3x=55.5
3x÷3=55.5÷3
x=18.5
No, GCF means greatest common factor, meaning the largest number than can be divided into the number. 2 would be the lowest common factor or LCF.
EX. 200 & 440. In this case the GCF would be 40, but the LCF would be 2 because they are both even numbers
