These figures are similiar. the area of one is given. find the area of the other

18 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 similar figures then

linear ratio = 9 : 12 = 3 : 4

area ratio = 3² : 4² = 9 : 16

let the area of the other figure be x

= [ ]

cross- multiply

16x = 288 ( divide both sides by 16 )

x = 18

Area of other figure is 18 in²

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:

his chances of getting a coin of higher value is 4/19
