If the pattern (see attachment) below was tripled, the ratio of black squares to gray squares would be equal to 1:2.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion can be defined as an equation which is typically used to represent (indicate) the equality of two (2) ratios. This ultimately implies that, proportions can be used to establish that two (2) ratios are equivalent and solve for all unknown quantities.
Mathematically, a direct proportion can be represented by the following equation:
y = kx
Where:
- y and x are the variables.
- k represents the constant of proportionality.
<h3>What is a ratio?</h3>
A ratio can be defined as a mathematical expression that's used to denote the proportion of two (2) or more quantities with respect to one another and the total quantities.
For this exercise, the ratio of black square to gray squares is given by:
B:G = 1:2
Tripling the pattern, we would multiply by three (3) as follows:
B:G = [1:2] × 3
B:G = 3:6
Dividing all through by 3, we have:
B:G = [3:6]/3
B:G = 3/3 : 6/3
B:G = 1:2.

In fact the answer to that would be A. 186 square units.
lets divide the polygon into sections.
the longer rectangle at the bottom has a length of 24 by adding all the numbers
It also has a side width of 5, so 24x5=120.
Onto section 2, you can see the smaller rectangle on top has a length of 11
and width of 5, so 11x6=66. so in total 66+120=186. and that is the square units of this polygon
Hope this helped.

Answer: 11.9 cm</h3>
Work Shown:
|x-12.2| = 0.3
x-12.2 = -0.3 or x-12.2 = 0.3
x = -0.3+12.2 or x = 0.3+12.2
x = 11.9 or x = 12.5
The min length is 11.9 cm and the max length is 12.5 cm
Subtracting 12.2 from either x value leads to a positive difference of 0.3 which is the margin of error.
Question
Solve the equation: x-14=20
x -14 = 20
x = 20 + 14
x = 34
34 is your answer
----------------------------
check
34 - 14 = 20
the answer is good
