n a competition is 1 and 1/6 times the height of Barry's best pole vault, and Barry's best pole vault is 8/9 times the height of Lucy's pole vault. The height of Lucy's pole vault is 12 feet, 4 and 1/2 inches.
a) Write an equation that shows how you can find the height of Barry's best pole vault.
b) Solve the equation in part (a) to determine the height of Barry's best pole vault.
c) Write an equation that shows how you can find the height of Robert's best pole vault.

lucy = 148.5 inches

barry = 8/9L

robert = 7/6B

a) barry = 8/9(148.5)

b) 132 inches

c) 7/6[8/9(148.5 inches)]

d) 154 inches

32% of a number is 64 what is the number
Serjik [45]

Answer:

If you take 32 percent of a number and get 64, then what is that number? In other words, you know that 32 percent of a number is 64 and you want to know what that initial number is. Therefore, the answer to "64 is 32 percent of what number?" is 200, and you can also derive that 32 percent of 200 equals 64.

How to slove this problem?
Feliz [49]
So, since the polygons are similar, they will share a scale factor. 

The dilation is a reduction.

SF= preimage/image

SF=48/40

SF= 1.2

To find the value of x, multiply 20 by 1.2, so:

20(1.2)=24

Thus, x = 24

Now, to check if the sides are proportional (this will determine if the polygons are, in fact, similar.)

24/20=1.2
48/40=1.2

BTW, the missing side measure for the image is 40 since 48 is its corresponding side, and 48/1.2 (SF) is 40.

Hence, we have 48/40= 1.2
