When a population or group of something is declining, and the amount that decreases is proportional to the size of the population.
Have a good day!!
The length of line in green = 5 cm
the length of line in yellow = 3 cm
the length of line in red = 6 cm
the length of line in white = 16 cm
the total area = 100 + 12 + 12 + 20 + 24 + 96 = 264 cm2
My work for your question
X = Juan's age
y = Eliza's age
Some key words/phrases we can use to help us make the equation are:
-is (whatever comes after this word usually equals the end result, or what it equals)
-two years younger
-than
-half her brother's age
.
just break it down :)
x/2 (half her brother's age) - 2 (two years younger) = y (Eliza is...)
| basically,
v
x/2 - 2 = y
So if Juan is 6, then we need to plug in 6 for x.
6/2 - 2 = y
3 - 2 = y
1 = y
ANSWER: Eliza is one year old.
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the 2 figures are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
( cross- multiply )
18x = 48 ( divide both sides by 18 )
x =
=
= 2 
Similarly
=
( cross- multiply )
18y = 30 ( divide both sides by 18 )
y =
=
= 1
