Niu has decorated x cards. He started with 24 stickers, and he used 4 stickers per card. Which expressions can we use to describ
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

24-4x

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Niu has decorated x cards. He started with 24 stickers and he used 4 stickers per card. So stickers used in x cards will be 4x.

As initial number of stickers was 24, so we can find number of stickers left after decorating x cards by subtracting number of stickers used in x cards from 24.

\text{Number of stickers that Niu has left}=24-4x

Therefore, the expression 24-4x will represent the number of stickers that Niu has left after decorating x cards.

Figure a is dilated by a scale factor of 1/2 to form figure b. What is the length of x?
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

The correct option is 3. The value of x is 8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Figure A is dilated by a scale factor of 1/2 to form Figure B. It means both figure are similar and corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional.

\text{scale factor}=\frac{\text{Side of image}}{\text{Side of preimage}}

\frac{1}{2}=\frac{x}{16}

Multiply both sides by 16.

\frac{16}{2}=x

8=x

Since scale factor is 1/2, so we can directly say that the side length of image is half of the corresponding side of preimage.

The length of x is 8 inches. Therefore the correct option is 3.
