I have been trying but i am pretty sure it is 36 i think
17/51=8/x <-- Cross multiply
17x=408 <-- Divide 17 by both sides
x=24
The shortest side is 24 or B.
Just subsitute values for x and get values for y
(x,y)
(0,-2)
(1,1)
(-1,-5)
(-2,-8)
here is the graph
The answer to that question is 5
If one mile is 1760 yards, to find 1/8 of a mile in terms of yards, we can divide 1760 by 8.
1760 yards / 8 = 220 yards
