Answer:

18/8 = x/3

x = 6.75 inches (length)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write 2 ratios using the information given:

A larger rectangle has a length of 18 inches and width of 8 inches.

Inches /width = 18/8

So, for a rectangle that has a length of x inches and width of 3 inches the ratio is :

x/3

Solving for x:

18/8 = x/3

18/8 (3) =x

6.75 in= x

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

A beach ball rolls off a cliff and onto the beach. The height, in feet, of the beach ball can be modeled by the function h(t)=64
Karolina [17]

Answer:

rate of change = -32 feet/second

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) = 64 – 16t2

t = time (seconds)

Look at the start of time where t = 0

h(t) = 64 - 16 * (0) * 2 = 64 feet

Then look at the specified time where t = 1.25 seconds

h(t) = 64 - 16 * (1.25sec) * 2 = 24 feet

rate of change = rate of change y / rate of change x

x = time, y = height

rate of change = (24 - 64) / (1.25 - 0) = -32 feet/second

How to find the value of x in a triangle (5x-11)°, (2x+20)°, (11x-63)°
asambeis [7]

Answer:

x=13

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the triangle is always equal to 180 degrees in total. Lets remember that x will always be the same in every equation.

So, (5x-11) x (2x+20) x (11x-63) = 180.

Now, take away the parenthesis and add up all the like terms.

This should = 18x-54 = 180.

Now solve like you regularly would. Add 54 on both sides which equals,

18x=234. Now, divide 18 on both sides.

x = 13.

Hope this helps.
