Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a percent proportion:

12/x = 48/100

To solve for x, we would do:

x = (12*100)/48 = 1200/48 = 25

x = 25%

In my opinion, the easiest way to do this would be to look at this and notice that 12 * 4 =48 so that means 12 is 1/4 of 48 and 1/4 = 25%.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Drag each figure to show if it is similar to the figure shown or why it is not similar

Margarita [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given figure is a rectangle having length = 9 yd and width = 3 yd

Now we will check each figure

Figure one- rectangle with length = 18 yd and width = 9 yd

For similarity of both rectangles ratio of length should be equal to ratio of widths.

$\frac{3}{9}\neq\frac{9}{18}$

So rectangles are not similar.

Figure 2- rectangle with length = 3 yd and width = 6 yd

$\frac{9}{3}\neq \frac{3}{6}$

So figures are not similar.

Figure 3 - rectangle with length = 3 yd and width = 1 yd

$\frac{9}{3}=\frac{3}{1}$

Therefore, figures are similar.

Figure 4 -rectangle with length = 8 yd and width = 2 yd

$\frac{3}{2}\neq \frac{9}{8}$

So given rectangles are not similar.

Figure 5 - rectangle with length = 18 yd and width = 6 yd

$\frac{9}{18}=\frac{3}{6}$

So rectangles are similar.

Figure 6 - trapezoid with larger base = 18 yd and height = 6 yd

Since shapes of the given figures are not same so they are not similar.

Write a numerical expression that represents the sum of nine squared and 35

garri49 [273]

The numerical expression would be -- nine squared which is 81, and 35 so you could put nine to the second power plus 35, or the full completed answer would be 116.

The value of x in the triangle is (a) 22

<h3>How to solve for x?</h3>

The complete question is in the attached image.

From the attached image of the triangle, we have:

$\sin(45) = \frac{x}{22\sqrt 2}$

Evaluate sin(45)

$\frac{1}{\sqrt 2} = \frac{x}{22\sqrt 2}$

Solve for x

$x = \frac{22\sqrt 2}{\sqrt 2}$

Divide

x = 22

Hence, the value of x is (a) 22
