By comparing the dimensions above with the dimensions of Taylor's first rectangle, we have the following:

  • No, a length of 6 in, width 3/4 in. is not proportional.
  • Yes, a length of 1/2 in, width 4 in. is not proportional.
  • No, a length of 1 1/8 in, width 9 in. is not proportional.
  • No, a length of 3 in, width 5 5/8 in. is not proportional.

<h3>What is a direct proportion?</h3>

Mathematically, a direct proportion (direct variation) can be represented the following mathematical expression:

y = kx

Where:

  • y and x are the variables or dimensions.
  • k represents the constant of proportionality.

For the dimensions of the rectangular pieces of paper to be proportional, the length and width must remain in a constant ratio.

Next, we would determine the constant of proportionality (k) as follows:

k = y/x

k = (3/8)/3

k = 3/24

k = 1/8

For dimension 1, we have:

k = y/x

k = (6)/(3/4)

k = 24/3

k = 8 (No).

For dimension 2, we have:

k = y/x

k = (1/2)/4

k = 1/2 × 1/4

k = 1/8 (Yes).

For dimension 3, we have:

k = y/x

k = (1 1/8)/9

k = (9/8)/8

k = 9/8 × 1/8

k = 9/64 (No).

For dimension 4, we have:

k = y/x

k = (3)/(5 5/8)

k = 3/(45/8)

k = 3 × 8/45

k = 24/45 (No).

Find the perimeter: a polygon with sides 2.1 cm, 2.1 cm, 1 cm, 3.3 cm, and 1 cm
Nostrana [21]

Hello!

P = 2,1cm + 2,1cm + 1cm + 3,3cm + 1cm => P = 4,2cm + 1cm + 3,3cm + 1cm => P = 5,2cm + 3,3cm + 1cm => P = 8,5cm + 1cm => P = 9,5cm

Answer: D. 9,5cm

Good luck! :)
