Answer:
To find the scale factor, all you have to do is <em>divide a side value of one figure by its congruent side value on another figure. </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
To start:
- The values 15 and 10 are both for the same congreunt side --> EF and E'F'
- The values 4 and 6 are both for the same congreunt side --> DE and D'E'
- The values 4 and 6 are both for the same congreunt side --> DG and D'G'
- The values 8 and 12 are both for the same congreunt side --> FG and F'G'
So, to find the scale factor, all you have to do is divide the smaller congruent value from the larger congruent value.
Larger congruent value ÷ smaller congruent value = scale factor
15 ÷ 10 = scale factor
\____________________/
1.5
<h3>So, the scale factor is 1.5</h3>
To double check, we will use another congruent side to find the scale factor:
12 ÷ 8 = scale factor
1.5 = scale factor
<h3>So, the scale factor is most definitely 1.5</h3>
I hope this helps!

There is a way to do this algebraically using equations, but it is really messy so I am going to go over the way to do it. The way you do this is by finding whole numbers that multiply to make -192. Start with 1 and 192, 2 and 96, 3 and 64, etc and make the smaller number negative.
The reason why you make the smaller number negative is because we are looking for what numbers add together to make a positive number (10). If the bigger number was negative, then we would get a negative sum.
From what i could find, there aren't any whole numbers that satisfy this, and i doubt that the question would want you to find decimals for this.
The way to find this with equations (in short) is to have to variables, x and y, and make two equations. in this case x+y=10 and xy=-192. Solve one equation for a variable and then use substitution to plug that variable into the other equation. if you do this you get really long decimals.
