Calling yourself a moron doesn't help either.

P.S Sorry just a bit high :D

Answer 2

I asked for help earlier on this and everyone turned out to be wrong @will.h

Answer 3

what

Answer 4

@mecharv omg

Answer 5

From the given info,
2/5=x/10.5
so can you find x?

Answer 6

It uses the same similarity property.

Answer 7

come on

Answer 8

How did you know they meant the 1st dimensions not the 2nd? @mecharv that's what am confused about what dimensions are similar

Answer 9

@Will.H same I'm not sure

Answer 10

It says the two drawings are similar and also utilize as much as space as possible.

Answer 11

@mecharv I keep getting 21/5 which is 1/5 and that makes it 4.2? So i am right?

Answer 12

Yes you are right @dehydrated

Answer 13

oh yeah it is indeed the 1st because they are trying to find the Max size it could get to for the next phase which is 8.5 x 11

but anyway the way you arranged was wrong
we know that the length is the largest dimesnion

so therefor
\[\frac{ x }{ 2 } = \frac{ 10.5 }{ 5 }\]
solve
5x = 21
x = 4.2

so 4.2/2 = 10.5/5
2.1 = 2.1

which means would be 2.1

Answer 14

@Will.H I am pretty sure it is 2/x=5/10.5

Answer 15

oh wait you just need to find the missing dimesnion which is 4.2 yeah

Answer 16

i found the ratio

Answer 17

@Will.H Oh I figured it out :)
You are right
