Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangles with the same shape but different size are proportional. Proportional means that their side lengths form equal ratios. To solve for x, set up a proportion.
The ratios we will create will be where each long and short are corresponding sides from each triangle.
So write:
To solve, cross multiply numerator with denominator.
4(2.25) = 3(x)
9 = 3x
3 =x
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set this up to see if we can simplify it a bit:
Notice we have 4 tens on top and 3 on bottom, so we can eliminate the bottom 3 altogether and leave just one on top. And we have 2 fives on the top and 3 on bottom, so we can eliminate the 2 on the top and leave one on the bottom. Now that looks like this:
10 divided by 5 is 2, and 2 cubed is 8
