Answer: 7.5

Form your proportion. Let x be the width of QRST.

Length of ABCD      Length of QRST
-----------------------  =  ------------------------- 
Width of ABCD         Width of QRST

8/5 = 12/x

Solve for x by cross-multiplying.
(8)(x) = (12)(5)
8x = 60
x = 7.5

in a small machine shop, eight 5-gallon drums of oil are on hand. if 2 gallons are used each day and the owner wants a 30-day su
zavuch27 [327]
If 2 gallons of oil are used a day, than he will need 60 gallons of oil, because 30x2=60. For 60 gallons of oil, you would have to have 12 drums because 60÷5=12. Because there is already 8 drums of oil, there would already be 40 gallons because 8x5=40. If the owner already had 40 gallons of oil, they would only have to get 20 more gallons because 60-40=20. That would be 4 drums because 20÷5=4. The owner would have to order 4 more drums of oil.

Truck -Rite Rentals rents trucks at daily rate of $49.95 plus 39 cents per mile. concert Productions has budgeted $100 for renti
Sergio039 [100]
$100 - $49.95 = $50.05
You have $100, and just renting costs $49.95, leaving $50.05 left.
$50.05 / $0.39 = 128.3

Out of your money left ($50.05) you divide my how much it costs in a day, to get how many miles you can go.

The answer is 128.3, but if you were going a round trip (there and back) you would do 128.3 / 2 = 64.16, meaning you can go 64 miles and come back, all for a hundred dollars (still 128 miles in total though)
