Mathematics
1 answer:
natka813 [3]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides of similar triangles will be in same ratio.

\dfrac{x}{x+18}=\dfrac{20}{28}

Cross multiply

x*28 = 20*(x+18)   {Use distributive method}

28x = 20x + 360

28x - 20x = 360

8x = 360

 x = 360/8

x = 45

Angelica painted 1/20 of her bedroom walls in 1/2 an hour. How long will it take Angelica to paint her whole bedroom?
julsineya [31]

Angelica would have painted the bedroom in 20 hours if every hour she painted 1/20. But she doesn't paint 1/20 of a room per hour but rather 30 minutes. That means it will take her 10 hours to paint the whole room.

Hope this helps.
