soMEONE HELP

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

First you need to find y So you solve this equation (y+5)/4.5 = 10/4 y = ??

OpenStudy (briana.img):

y=6/25 ?!

OpenStudy (briana.img):

6.25

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Good, so y+5 = 6.25+5 = 11.25

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

What is the perimeter of figure BRAIN?

OpenStudy (briana.img):

@jim_thompson5910 63.75?!

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what numbers did you add up

OpenStudy (briana.img):

11.25+5+10+17.5+12.5+7.5

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the "+5" isn't needed since I already added 5 when I did "y+5 = 6.25+5 = 11.25"

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

This is what I'm getting 11.25+7.5+12.5+17.5+10 = 58.75

OpenStudy (briana.img):

ooooh

OpenStudy (briana.img):

so 58.75?!

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

The perimeter of BRAIN is 58.75

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

we want the perimeter of POWEQ

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so we can set up another ratio 58.75/P = 10/4 P = ???

OpenStudy (briana.img):

23.5?!!?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

and that's the perimeter of POWEQ

OpenStudy (briana.img):

@jim_thompson5910 thanks!! finally understood it!!

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I'm glad you do
