Answer: 3/8 can’t go to 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Let x be the number of silver medals.
As there were two more gold medals than silver ones, gold medals are x+2
We also know that the number of bronze medals was 4 less than the sum of gold and silver, so if there are x + 2 of gold and x of silver, there are x+x+2-4 of bronze.
Now, we can do an equation, as we know there were a total of 28 medals:
x + x + 2 + x + x + 2 - 4 = 28
And we isolate x:
4x = 28
x = 28/4 = 7
There were 7 silver medals, so there were 9 gold ones (7-2) and 12 of bronze (9+7-4).
Answer:

Answer:
The transformed points of the triangle ABC are
,
, 
Step-by-step explanation:
The new points after applying the scale factor are, respectively:






Let's use the variable x to represent the length of the first and second pieces.
If the third piece has twice the length of the first and second, its length is 2x.
If the fourth piece has half the length of the first and second, its length is 0.5*x.
Adding all four pieces and equating to 54 inches, we have:

So the length of each piece is:
12 inches, 12 inches, 24 inches and 6 inches.
