Answer:

(i) Triangle ABC and triangle ADE are similar triangles. Hence, their ratios will be same.

Ratio of DE to BC is 4:6 => 2:3

To find area, we need to raise the ratio of length to power 2

(2/3)² = 16/x

4/9 = 16/x

x = (16*9)/4

x = 36cm²

Therefore, area of triangle ABC is 36cm²

(ii) Ratio of DE to BC is 4:8 => 1:2

(1/2)² = 25/x

1/4 = 25/x

x = 25*4

x = 100cm²

Therefore, area of triangle ABC is 100cm²

I'm not sure about the third question, sorry

The total number of calories for 18 cups of milk is 1620 calories.
If two cups of milk is 180 calories then divide 180/2 to find the unit rate.
Then multiply 90 by the number of cups (18) and then you get the total number of calories for that many drinks.

Answer:

1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they are equal triangles, all of their sides are equal

so, lets take one side of each triangle (4, 5)

the law:

the scale factor = the larger side ÷ the smaller side

x = 5 ÷ 4

x = 1.25

For checking:

the larger side = the smaller side × the scale factor

Y = 4 × 1.25

Y = 5

A book contains 120 pages and each page 35 lines how many pages will the book contains if every page has 24 lines
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

If there will be 24 lines on all pages, there will be 175 pages in the book

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find out how much lines does the book have in total, so we multiply the number of pages by the number of lines on the page. So we get.....

120 x 35 = 4200

Now in order to find out how much pages will the book have when a page will have 14 lines we divide the number of lines by 24 and we get......

4200 / 24 = 175
