Answer:

When you multiply a negative by a negative you get a positive, because the negative signs cancel each other.

A board 120 inches long is divided into 2 sections. If the ratio of the 2 sections is 3:5, what are the lengths of the sections?
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: D.45 inches, 75 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to divide the board's length by the number of parts that conforms the 2 sections.

Since the ratio is 3/5, one section is made of 3 parts and the other section is made of 5 parts. 3+5 = 8 parts

120 / 8 = 15 inches

Each part measures 15 inches.

Now, we have to multiply each part's length by the number of parts that each section has. (3 and 5)

15x 3 = 45 inches

15 x 5 = 75 inches

Answer:

ARE ≅ ΔARC

By rule - SSS Congruence Postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in the two triangles ARE and ARC.

Sides AE ≅ AC and RE ≅ RC

Moreover, they have AR as their common side.

<em>So, we get that, in ΔARE and ΔARC, all the three corresponding sides are equal.</em>

Thus, by the SSS Congruence Postulate, ΔARE ≅ ΔARC.

Answer: 840 square inches

1. Split the figure into two rectangles. 

2. Find x (there are other missing sides, but you do not need to know them).
x = 40 - 10
x = 30
                                    
3. Find the area of the two rectangles. Remember: A = lw.
Top rectangle: (10)(30) = 300
Bottom rectangle: (18)(30) = 540

4. Add the rectangles' areas together.
300 + 540 = 840
