At the end of each school year, Evan cleans out all of the school supplies that have collected in his desk. He can’t believe how much stuff is in there this year! He has 4 times as many markers as he has pencils. He has 3 more highlighters than he has markers. He has twice as many pens as he has highlighters. Let p represent the number of pencils that Evan has in his desk. a. Write an algebraic expression that represents the number of markers in Evan’s desk. (no spaces)

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
