Answer:
x = 67.5
Step-by-step explanation:
If a line is parallel to a side of a triangle and intersects the other 2 sides , it divides those sides proportionally.
AB is parallel to NP and intersects the other 2 sides , then
= 
( substitute values )
= 
, that is
= ( cross- multiply )
49.5(97.5 - x) = 22x ← distribute left side
4826.25 - 49.5x = 22x ( add 49.5x to both sides )
4826.25 = 71.5x ( divide both sides by 71.5 )
67.5 = x
Okay, so the top numbers are how many pieces we have, and the bottom number is how many pieces there are, think of it like a pizza. If the pizza is cut into 8 slices and you have one slice, you have a smaller piece of pizza than one slice from a pizza that was only cut into 6 pieces, which is smaller than one slice from a pizza that was only cut into 3 pieces. The more pieces there are, the smaller the pieces are, so the bigger the bottom number is, the smaller the fraction is.
Answer:
The length is 72 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Equations</em>
2L+2W=192
L=3W
<em>Solving/Substitution</em>
2(3W)+2W=192
8W=192
W=192/8=24
L=24*3=72
The length is 72 feet.
The width is 24 feet.
