Hey user!!

your answer is here...

given the ratio between the Length and breadth (width) of the rectangle is 5 : 3

let the Length and breadth of the rectangle be 5x and 3x approximately.

area of the rectangle = 240in²

therefore l × b = 240in²

==> 5x × 3x = 240in²

==> 15x² = 240in²

==> x² = 240/15

==> x² = 16

==> x = √16

==> x = 4in

hence, length of the rectangle = 5x = 5 × 4 = 20in

breadth of the rectangle = 3x = 3 × 4 = 12in

cheers!!

Ralph and Jody go to the store to buy chips and candy bars. Ralph buys 3 bags of potato chips and 4 candy bars for 375 cents. Jo
s2008m [1.1K]
3x+4y = 375
6x+ 4y= 600
-------------------
6x-3x  = 600 - 375

3x=225
x=225:3
x=75 cents

3*x+4y= 375
3*75+4y=375
225 +4y = 375
4y=375-225
4y=150
y=150:4
y=37,5 cents

the price is 75+37,5=112,5 cents for one bag of potato chips and one candy bar

Use AAS to prove the triangles congruent..........
andriy [413]
Hey there, 29levelupchaye2!

Angles B and G are congruent because they are alternate interior angles since they are in between two parallel lines.

Angles ACB and HFG are congruent because they are alternate exterior angles since they are both outside two parallel lines cut by a transversal.

Thank you for using Brainly.
