Answer:

The answer is D, 30.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the two parallelograms are similar, the relationship between the sides of them are directly proportional.

So:

[tex]\frac{9}{8} =\frac{x}{27}[/tex]

Cross multiply

8x = 243

÷8 both sides

x = 30.375 ≈ 30.4

The answer is D, 30.4

ANSWER

D. 30.4

EXPLANATION

The two parallelograms are similar, therefore the corresponding sides must be in the same proportion:

[tex] \frac{x}{9} = \frac{27}{8} [/tex]

Multiply both sides of the equation by 8. This implies that,

[tex]x = \frac{27}{8} \times 9[/tex]

[tex]x = 30.375[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest tenth gives us:

[tex]x = 30.4 \: units[/tex]
