Answer:
C. ⁵/12= ²/x
Step-by-step Explanation:
Given that rectangle EFGH is similar to rectangle JKLM, it means the corresponding sides of both rectangles are similar, and as such the ratios if the corresponding sides of rectangle EFGH and rectangle JKLM would be equal.
Thus, EF/JK = FG/KL
Since, EF = 5; JK = 12; FG = 2; and KL= x, therefore, the proportion to use in finding x would be:
⁵/12= ²/x
12 + 5x > 2(8x - 6) - 7x
12 + 5x > 16x - 12 - 7x
5x - 16x + 7x > -12 - 12
-4x > -24 / : (-4)
x < 6
She worked 30 hours per week.
The problem turns out to be the following:
2x+15=3x-15.
First you need to have only one x variable so you subtract the X's:
3x-2x=X
The problem now turns into 15=x-15.
You have to isolate the X so you do x+15. You have to do the same to the other side so 15+15=30, therefore x=30
The figure can be splitted into 2 trapeziums.
Hence, 14.5 * 16 + 20 * 10 = 432.
Answer:
(4,2.5)
