the ratio of the sides of two similar pentagons is 5: 9. if the area of the larger pentagon is 429.3 cm2, then the area of the
smaller pentagon is cm2. (a pentagon has 5 sides)
enter a number answer only.

132.5 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

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

ratio of areas = a² : b²

Here the ratio of sides = 5 : 9, thus

ratio of areas = 5² : 9² = 25 : 81

Let x be the area of the smaller pentagon then by proportion

= ( cross- multiply )

81x = 10732.5 ( divide both sides by 81 )

x = 132.5

Area of smaller pentagon is 132.5 cm²

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.

14 ft 7 inches

step-by-step explanation:

since each model inch corresponds to 25 real inches, 7 model inches will correspond to

7×25" = 175"

at 12" per foot, that is 14 feet, 7 inches.
