Answer:  14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are similar, that means their side lengths are proportional.

Therefore, \frac{WX}{AB} = \frac{WZ}{AD}.

We can plug in the values we know:

Let x be the missing measurement.

\frac{16}{24} =\frac{x}{21}

We can simplify 16/24 to 2/3.

2/3 = x/21.

We can cross multiply:

42 = 3x

Therefore, x = 14

A pool is being drained at a rate of 120 gallons per minute.What is this rate in quarts per hour?
zysi [14]
There are 4 quarts in 1 gallon, so a rate of 120 gallons per minute converts to 4 x 120 = 480 quarts per minute. To find the per hour rate, we simply multiply our per minute rate by 60, obtaining 480 x 60 = 28800 quarts per hour.

What is 25+120-10x=10x-35=
Alexandra [31]
145-10x=10x-35

Add 35 to both sides.

175-10x=10x

Add 10x to both sides.

175=20x

Divide both sides by 20

8.75=x
