Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Similarities.
Since here, first figure is a Triangle, hence similarity of a triangle is given by ratio of it sides and make them equate,
hence for,
1.) 16/12 = x/9 ===> 4/3 = x/9 ===> x = 9*4/3 ==> x = 36/3
hence the value of x is 12 , ===> x = 12 .
2.) here,in the case of a Reactangle the relation is such that, length = 2* breadth,
hence we apply the relation,
x = 2*4.5 ===> x = 9 units.
"Since the ratio is 5:7 you can think in total there was 12 equal blocks of money invested. 5 of those blocks belonged to Jim and 7 of those blocks belonged to Gail. Since they invested $3,600 and then made $6,450 in total there is $10,050. Divide that total into 12 equal blocks of $837.50 and 5 of those blocks belong to Jim. So he will get $4,187.50"
make the y int -4 because it passes through (0,-4). to make perpendicular, apply same slope to new equation but change sign
