Answer:

Equation:

<em>The number that is not attached to a variable is considered a constant. </em>
<em>A constant is a number on it's own.</em>

A rectangle has an area of 20 ft.² in a similar rectangle has an area of 180 ft.² what is the ratio of areas of the similar

vovikov84 [41]

$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{ratio relations}
\\\\
\begin{array}{cccllll}
&Sides&Area&Volume\\
&-----&-----&-----\\
\cfrac{\textit{similar shape}}{\textit{similar shape}}&\cfrac{s}{s}&\cfrac{s^2}{s^2}&\cfrac{s^3}{s^3}
\end{array}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\$

$\bf \cfrac{\textit{similar shape}}{\textit{similar shape}}\qquad \cfrac{s^2}{s^2}=\cfrac{20}{180}\implies \left( \cfrac{s}{s} \right)^2=\cfrac{20}{180}\implies \cfrac{s}{s}=\sqrt{\cfrac{20}{180}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{s}{s}=\cfrac{\sqrt{20}}{\sqrt{180}}\implies \cfrac{s}{s}=\cfrac{2\sqrt{5}}{6\sqrt{5}}\implies \cfrac{s}{s}=\cfrac{2}{6}\implies \cfrac{s}{s}=\cfrac{1}{3}$

Kay [80]

C = 1.6b
c + b = 442

1.6b + b = 442
2.6b = 442
b = 442 / 2.6
b = 170 <== Boston

c = 1.6b
c = 1.6(170)
c = 272 <== Colorado Springs
