<h3>Answer: B. x = 6</h3>

==========================================================

Explanation:

Since the vertical lines are parallel, this means the alternate exterior angles shown are congruent.

Set them equal to each other and solve for x.

15(x+2) = 120

15x+30 = 120

15x = 120-30

15x = 90

x = 90/15

x = 6

Or we could have the steps like this

15(x+2) = 120

x+2 = 120/15

x+2 = 8

x = 8-2

x = 6

How do I find the ratio of this? It makes no sense to me

Volgvan

Answer:

$\frac{169}{289}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 similar figures with ratio of sides = a : b, then

ratio of areas = a² : b²

Here ratio of sides = 52 : 68 = 13 : 17 ← in simplest form, thus

ratio of areas = 13² : 17² = 169 : 289 = $\frac{169}{289}$

A rectangle garden has a width that is 8 feet less than twice the length. Find the dimensions if the perimeter is 20 feet

Lana71 [14]

Width = 4ft

Length = 6ft

<u>Explanation: </u>

Let length = l ,

So, width = 2l-8

Perimeter of rectangle = 2x(length + width)

According to the question,

$20ft = 2X(l + 2l-8)\\20ft = 2X(3l -8)\\ 10ft = 3l-8\\18ft = 3l \\ l = 6ft$

Hence,

Width = 4ft

Length = 6ft
