Step-by-step explanation:

since they are similar, the same scale factor must apply to every side.

so, it is sufficient to look on only one pair of corresponding sides.

16 × x = 40

x = 40/16 = 10/4 = 5/2 = 2.5

so, the scaling factor from the small to the large shape is 2.5 or 5/2.

it seems it is your choice which format of the 2 to use.

Suppose that the functions s and t are defined for all real numbers x as follows.

Svetllana [295]

$s(x)=2x+4;\ D_s=\mathbb{R}\\\\t(x)=5x;\ D_t=\mathbb{R}\\\\D_s=D_t\\\\(s+t)(x)=s(x)+t(x)=2x+4+5x=7x+4\\\\(s-t)(x)=s(x)-t(x)=2x+4-5x=-3x+4\\\\(s\times t)(x)=(2x+4)\times5x=10x^2+20x$

If x represents a number, then write an expression for a number that is three more than the number

myrzilka [38]

Saying "a number" is the same as saying "x"

"Three more than a number" is the same as "three more than x"

If you have three more of something (say, marbles) than someone else, then you have their number of marbles plus three more.

Then, "Three more than x" is the same as "three plus x", or "3 + x"

Hope this helps! :)

6x - 3.5 = -15.5
Add 3.5 to both sides
6x = -12
Divide by 6
x = -2
