Answer:

You = bronze

Your brother = silver

Your sister = gold

Step-by-step explanation:

Your marks: 40/60

Your brother's marks: 46/60

Your sister's marks: 49/60

You can simplify the fractions, but you don't have to:

40/60 = 2/3

46/60 = 23/30

49/60 = 49/60

Now, divide each of the numerators by the denominators (turn the fraction into a decimal).

2/3 = 0.6667

23/30 = 0.7666667

49/60 = 0.8166667

(Note that these are all approximations as the real answers go on forever)

Lastly, multiply them all by 100 to get the percent.

0.6667 x 100 = 66.67% - bronze

0.76667 x 100 = 76.667% - silver

0.816667 x 100 = 81.6667% - gold

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

scale factor (k) is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at W and W'. W is (-2, -1), but W' says (-4, -2). 2 x 2 is 4 and 1 x 2 is 2. Both coordinates were multiplied by 2. The same goes for all the other vertices, so it would be k = 2.

A quadrilateral is a polygon shape with four sides and four angles. The interior angle of a quadrilateral sums up to 360°.

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral (has four sides and four angles) in which has two pair of opposite sides are parallel to each other.

A square is a quadrilateral with four equal sides consisting of two pair of parallel sides. Each angle in a square measures 90°. A square is a quadrilateral and a parallelogram.

From the question, we can see in the image attached that the shape is a square since all its sides are equal, hence it is also a quadrilateral and a parallelogram.
