Jason considered two similar televisions at a local electronics store. The generic version was based off the brand name and was the size of the brand name. If the generic television set is 12 inches by 24 inches, what are the dimensions of the brand name television? (4 points)
7.5 inches by 15 inches
28 inches by 56 inches
32 inches by 64 inches
4.5 inches by 9 inches

Is it asking if they are the same size since it is based off and the size of the brand name?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i have no idea thats all they gave me
OpenStudy (perl):
there seems to be a typo in the question, but if it is 'similar' then you can use the same ratio of length to width
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is there any number here based off the brand name and was_____ the size of the brand
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea 3/8

yea
OpenStudy (perl):
g = 3/8 * b
now multiply both sides by 8/3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay
OpenStudy (perl):
in other words, solve for b :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so would it be the once i said c?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well do you know how you got c?
OpenStudy (perl):
you should feel confident about your answer now :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i dont cause i dont know which one it is XD @perl
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i just think because 8x8= 64
OpenStudy (perl):
(length of brand name television) = 8/3 *( length of generic television )
shortened we have
b = 8/3 * g
So the two lengths are
b = 8/3 * ?
b = 8/3 * ?
