Question

What is the value of x, rounded to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

3.3 centimeters

Explanation:

To find the distance between the big side and small side of the shapes:

1. Set up an algebraic equation: 15x = 7
2. Divide each side by 15 to cancel out the 15 next to x. It should now look like this: x = 7/15

To solve for x:

1. 
   `(7)/(1)` ×
   `(7)/(15) = (49)/(15)`
2. 49/15 = 3.266...
3. 3.266... rounded = 3.3 centimeters

I hope this helps!
