Answer:

The perimeter of the new pentagon is 35\ in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its perimeters is equal to the scale factor

Let

z------> the scale factor

x-----> the perimeter of the dilated pentagon

y-----> the perimeter of the original pentagon

so

z=\frac{x}{y}

we have

z=\frac{5}{3}

y=21\ in

substitute and solve for x

\frac{5}{3}=\frac{x}{21}

x=21*5/3=35\ in

How do you solve this in standard form. y=7x-4
attashe74 [19]
Y = 2/7x - 4
y + 4 = 2/7x
4 = 2/7x - y (multiply everything by seven to get rid of the fraction)
28 = 2x - 7y
2x - 7y = 28
