Based on what you have here as the slope we can set the slope formula equal to 34 using the points (0, 8) and (8, c) to solve for c, then use the points (0, 8) and (a, 5) to solve for a.

c first:

$\frac{c-8}{8-0}=34$ and

$\frac{c-8}{8}=34$ and

c - 8 = 272 s0

c = 280

For a:

$\frac{5-8}{a-0}=34$ and

$\frac{-3}{a}=34$ and

-34a = 3 so

$a=-\frac{3}{34}$

That seems a little weird, but when you plug those points into the slope formula to solve for the slope, it works out the way it should.

Two rectangles are similar. One has a length of 12 cm and a width of 9 cm, and

il63 [147K]

Answer:

10.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the missing side.

The rectangles are similar. Wich means:

● 8/9 = x/12

Cross multiply

● 9x = 8×12

● 9x = 96

Divide both sides by 9

● 9x/9 = 96/9

● x = 10.666

Round it to the nearest unit

● x = 10.7
