7. Tom weighs 168.5 pounds. His 2-year- old son, Nicholas, weighs 33.7 pounds. How many times as much as Nicholas does Tom weigh?

Tom weighs 5 times as much as Nicholas

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many times as much as Nicholas Tom weighs, we will divide Tom's weight by Nicholas' weight. This is done as follows:

Tom's weight = 168.5 pounds

Nicholas' weight = 33.7 pounds

Dividing both weights = 168.5 ÷ 33.7 = 5

∴ Tom weighs 5 times as much as Nicholas

d. bc = 12 and ef = 16

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that δabc : δdef such that .

also, it is given that

so, from the options, we need that .

a.

b.

c.  

d.

as, we can see that only option d gives the same ratio as i.e. .

hence, the possible lengths are bc = 12 and ef = 16.

me! what did you put for this question?
