Letter: 8.5 inches by 11 inches Legal: 8.5 inches by 14 inches Junior legal: 5 inches by 8 inches Tabloid: 11 inches by 17 inches a. Are any of the paper sizes similar? b. The dimensions of government-letter paper are each 0.5 inch less than the dimensions of letter paper. Are these paper sizes similar? Question 2 c. By increasing the shorter side of legal paper by inch, it is similar to the size of junior legal paper.

Answer

a. No none are similar.

b. No.

c. Even if it were to be increased it still won’t be similar as what we would get would be 133 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

LETTER = 8.5inches * 11 inches = 93.5inches.

LEGAL = 8.5inches * 14 inches = 119 inches

Junior legal: 5 inches * 8 inches = 40inches.

Tabloid: 11 inches * 17 inches = 187 inches

Government paper = 8inches * 10.5 inches = 84 inches.

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0
