Answer:
0.1725
Step-by-step explanation:
17 1/4 /100
17.25/100
0.1725
The original perimeter is 32ft.
The dimensions of the new rectangle are 72 ft wide and 24 ft long.
The new perimeter is 192 ft.
When the dimensions are multiplied by 6, the perimeter also multiplied by 6.
The product of 379 and 8 is 3,032.
It's between (any number less than 3,032) and (any number greater than 3,032).
I guess if this is an <em>estimation </em>exercise, you could say that it's between
(8 x 300) and (8 x 400), or 2,400 and 3,200.
The answer should be A. For example, if x = 1, and the ratio between x and y is y is 5 times greater than x, then y would equal 5, which is only true in A.
Or, use the number 5 as an example. If x = 5, and the ratio between x and y is y is 5 times greater than x, then y is 5.
And if you put that into A, y = 5x, it becomes 25 = 5(5)
Then 25 = 25, which is true!
