You would set up a proportion. 3/8 = 6/x... cross multiply ( 3*x = 3x and 6*8 = 48) 3x = 48... divide both sides by 3 (3x/3 = x and 48/3 = 16)
So, she originally had 16 feet of ribbon.
Answer: 4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
As you know this graph is a lemniscate

-- The two sides of a right <u>angle</u> intersect and make the angle.
So do the sides of any other angle. So they can't be parallel.
-- No two sides of a right <u>triangle</u> ... or any other triangle ...can be parallel.
Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:
We start out by observing that Triangles MKR & ACD are similar or proportional

We will solve for the missing side by using the similar triangle theorem. This is shown below:~
The answer for this equation is x= -8
