Make each a ratio, and set them equal to each other.

Larger rectangle = 3/5
smaller rectangle = x/3

3/5 = x/3

cross multiply

3/5(5)(3) = x/3(3)(5)

3(3) = x(5)

9 = 5x

Isolate the x, divide 5 from both sides

9/5 = 5x/5

x = 9/5

x = 1.8

1.8 in. is your answer

hope this helps

Solve the system of equations - 8x - 5y = -13 and - 4x – 5y = 11 by<br> combining the equations.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

(6,-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract them:

-8x - 5y = -13

-4x - 5y = 11

you get

-4x = -24

so x = 6

plug x into the second equation:

-24 - 5y = 11

-5y = 35

y = -7

so your solution is (6,-7).

Answer:

$-p^2+32$

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by expanding the $-2$ into the $(p-4)$ bracket using the distributive method:

$-2(p-4)\\-2p + 8$

Now, expand the result into the remaining bracket:

$(-2p + 8)(p+4)\\-2p^2 -8p+8p+32\\-2p^2 + 32$
