Penny wants to make a model of a beetle that is larger than life size. Penny says she is going to use a scaling factor of 7/12.

Does this make sense or is it nonsense? Explain.

It is nonsense. Penny claims she is going to to make it LARGER than life size. Therefore the fraction would have to be improper. The fraction stated would be making something SMALLER than life size.

It would be nonsense, as if the beetle were at normal size, then it would be considered 1/1 as a scale. If you wanted to increase it, you would increase the numerator.

Factor
solmaris [256]

The correct answer is C) (5m^50 - 11n^8) (5m^50 + 11n^8)

We can tell this because of the rule regarding factoring the difference of two perfect squares. When we have two squares being multiplied, we can use the following rule.

a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)

In this case, or first term is 25m^100. So we can solve that by setting it equal to a^2.

a^2 = 25m^100 -----> take the square root of both sides

a = 5m^50

Then we can do the same for the b term.

b^2 = 121n^16 ----->take the square root of both sides

b = 11n^8

Now we can use both in the equation already given

(a - b)(a + b)

(5m^50 - 11n^16)(5m^50 + 11n^16)
