Answer:
Option D is correct.
VS = 20 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is contained in the attached image to this answer.
From the image attached and the additional information about the triangles, it is evident that that triangle VSW is similar to triangle QSR.
Hence, we can write the ratio as
(VS/QS) = (VW/QR)
VS = 2a
QS = 2 × VS = 2 × 2a = 4a
VW = 2a - 2
QR = 3a + 6
(2a)/(4a) = (2a - 2)/(3a + 6)
Cross multiplying,
2a (3a + 6) = 4a (2a - 2)
3a + 6 = 2 (2a - 2)
3a + 6 = 4a - 4
4a - 3a = 6 + 4
a = 10
VS = 2a = 20 units.

Answer: 112 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that the width of the rectangular piece of wood is 4 inches and the width of the strip ribbon is 1/4 inches.
Then, let be "n" the number of strips ribbon that Laura needs to cover the width of the rectangular piece of wood (Assuming that she will cover the wood in the form shown in the figure attached). This is:
To find the lenght of ribbon that Laura needs to conver the wood, you must multiply the number of strips ribbon "n" by the lenght of the rectangular piece of wood, then you get:
