The answer would be 1.52727...
To solve this, subtract 283-199 is 84. Then divide 84 by 55 since 55 is mph of the car. Then you would divide the 84/55. After, the calculation should be 1.52727...
So, the answer/ how much time it takes from Tallahassee to Live Oak is 1.5 hours. (1.52727, 1.53)
Let the area of the original rectangle be A₁.
A₁ = (12 ft)(8 feet) = 96 ft²
To determine the area of the reduced triangle, let's compute the new dimensions first.
Length = 12 ft * 3/4 - 9 ft
Width = 8 ft *3/4 = 6 ft
Thus, the area of the new rectangle denoted as A₂ is
A₂ = (9 ft)(6 ft) = 54 ft
The ratio of the areas are:
A₂/A₁ = 54/96 = 9/16
The ratio of the sides are given to be 3/4.
Finally the ratios of the area to side would be:
Ratio = 9/16 ÷ 3/4 = 3/4
Therefore, the ratio of the areas is 3/4 of the ratio of the corresponding sides.
