Since they are similar, you need to find the ratio of similarity (I made up the term, there is probably a correct one that I can’t remember).
If you divide 16/40, you’ll find that that ratio is 2.5. So then you just multiply 16 x 2.5. You’ll get 18.
18 is the length of the top of the trapezoid.
You set 18=2x+4 and solve it algebraically. Subtract 4 from both sides.
14=2x
Divide by 2 and x=7
(You can also check that the ratio is right by 16/18 is the same decimal value as 40/45. You’ll get .88888...)
Answer: hi
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Length:28 cm
Width: 13 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ---> the length of a rectangle picture frame
y ---> the width of a rectangle picture frame
we know that
The area of a rectangle picture frame is equal to
we have
so
----> equation A
The length of a rectangle picture frame is 2 centimeters more than twice it’s width
so
---> equation B
Solve the system by graphing
Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs
The solution is the point (28,13)
see the attached figure
therefore
Length:28 cm
Width: 13 cm
you spent $303.
because 17 times 15 is 255. then 12 times 4 is 48.
255 plus 48 is 303.
