Answer:
X = 100
Step-by-step explanation:
- In proportion questions, they want you to multiply one of the sides by a variable, (i usually represent it with K) and then change the proportion sign to an equal.
- This is because proportional means they have a ratio between them, with one side increasing by "k" for each increase in the other side.
- Multiply the left by k, so
- we know that y= 5, for x = 36, so sub this in the equation
- simplify
- re-arrange for k, <u>k = 5*6 = 30</u>
- now we know k, we can create the real equation,
- sub in 3 as y
- <u>x = 100</u>
Answer:
Perimeter: 33.7 mm
Area: 54 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
If you do 12 + 9.7 + 12 you will get the perimeter, and to get the area you would use the formula A = x base x height. Since the base is 12 and the height is 9, you would do 12 x 9 x 0.5 to get 54 mm for the area of the triangle.
