a = 5 in

b = 12 in

c = 15 in

the lengths of the sides a, b and c

the perimeter is P = a + b + c = 5 + 12 + 15 = 32 in

let the dimensions of the new triangle be

a1 = (1/5)*5 in

b1 = (1/5)*12 in

c1 = (1/5)*15 in

the perimeter is P1 = a1 + b1 + c1 = (1/5)5 + (1/5)12 + (1/5)15 = (1/5)(5 + 12 + 15) = (1/5)P1

P1 = (1/5)P

P1/P = 1/5 = a/a1 = b/b1 = c/c1

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the ratio of the corresponding sides.

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Percentage of Taxes = 10.689 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Total earning of Anna is $442.50

The amount which is held with Taxes = $47.30

Now in terms of percentage

percentage of taxes from her total earning = \frac{47.30}{442.50} times 100

So % taxes = ( 0.106892) × 100

∴       Taxes percentage = 10.689 %

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a+s=14

a=14-s

a+8s=56, using a from above in this equation gives

14-s+8s=56

14+7s=56

7s=42

s=6

a=14-s

a=14-6=8

So student tickets cost $6 and adult tickets cost $8.
