Triangles ABC and ADE are similar triangles. That means the sides are all scaled by the same factor.
To go from side BC to side DE, you multiply by 1.25. That means 1.25 is your scale factor. Now apply that factor to the bottom side to get your answer.
Side AB is 6. That means side AD is 6 x 1.25 = 7.5. That means x = 7.5 - 6 = 1.5
Answer of what is the length is 12. if we add all the sides it has to come as 36,so if length=x then width=2x therefore X+X+2X+2X=36 therefore x=6 then width=2x =12.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The populational growth is exponential with a factor of 1.12 each year. An exponential function has the following general equation:

Where 'a' is the initial population (25,000 people), 'b' is the growth factor (1.12 per year), 'x' is the time elapsed, in years, and 'y(x)' is the population after 'x' years.
Therefore, the function P(t) that models the population in Madison t years from now is:
You can see if they are similar by looking at the sides.
If each of the sides have the same proportion then they are similar.
24/3 = 8
32/4 = 8
112/14 = 8
Yes they are similar and their ratio is 1:8
Hope this helps :)
