Mofor rented a bike from jimmys bikes it cost $12 plus $4 per hour if mofor paid $24 then he rented the bike for how many hours.

Lets say each hour is h ok? the equation would be

12 + 4h = 24

subtract 12 from both sides

4h = 12

H = 3. He rented it for 3 hours

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2

+2+=+%2836%2fx%29%5e2+

+2+=+1296%2fx%5e2+

++x%5e2+=+1296%2f2+=+648+
