Given: rectangle ABCD is similar to rectangle ZBXY. If ZY = 5, XC = 3, DC = 4, then XY =
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The length of XY is either 10 or 2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: ZY = 5, XC = 3 and DC = 4.

Case 1: Rectangle ABCD is smaller than ZBXY.

The opposite sides of the rectangle are same.

ZY=BC+XC

5=BC+3

2=BC

The length of ABCD is 4 and width of ABCD is 2. The width of ZBXY is 5. The corresponding sides of the similar rectangles are is in the same proportion.

\frac{4}{XY}=\frac{2}{5}

\frac{4\times 5}{2}=XY

10=XY

Therefore the value of XY is 10.

Case 2: Rectangle ABCD is larger than ZBXY.

ZY=BC-XC

5=BC-3

8=BC

The length of ABCD is 4 and width of ABCD is 8. The width of ZBXY is 5. The corresponding sides of the similar rectangles are is in the same proportion.

\frac{4}{XY}=\frac{8}{5}

\frac{4\times 5}{8}=XY

2.5=XY

Therefore the value of XY is 2.5.

Different shapes are drawn on cards and then the cards are placed in a bag. The number of cards for each shape is shown in the t
Anvisha [2.4K]
We can first add up the cards so we know how many we have in all:
16 + 16 + 18 = 50 cards

We can do this a little bit easier if we get the "16"-cards in one number total.

16 + 16 = 32

\frac{32}{50} = 32 x 2 = \frac{64}{100}
                                         50 x 2 

\frac{64}{100} = 64 : 2 = 32 %
                                            100
We did just divide the % of two types cards on 2, so we get the %-chance of 1 type card.

I am not quite sure, but I think that 32 % is the correct answer.
