Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−5
/8
x=−160
Step 2: Multiply both sides by 8/(-5).

x=256
Answer:
x=256
Answer: 122.5
======================================================
Explanation:
First thing to do is to find the perimeter of figure B. Add up all the sides and we get: 5+9+9+12 = 14+21 = 35.
The scale factor 7:2 means that if the perimeter of figure A was 7, then the perimeter of figure B would be 2. Or it could be 14 for A and 4 for B. And so on. The idea is that the two perimeters scale up or down together. This allows us to set up the proportion below in which we can solve for x
(perimeter of A)/(perimeter of B) = 7/2
x/35 = 7/2
x*2 = 35*7 .... cross multiply
2x = 245
2x/2 = 245/2 .... divide both sides by 2
x = 122.5
The perimeter of figure A is 122.5
Answer: Can you make the question a bit clear?
Answer:
602 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find volume, multiply length, width, and height. In this case, it is 5, 14, and 8 3/5. I used a calculator, but if not, solve it using regular multiplication. First 5 times 14 since that is easier to get out of the way, then 8 3/5, and it is easiest to treat a fraction as a decimal when multiplying, in this case it would be 0.6. I am not going to explain how I got that since you were asking how to find volume.
