Answer:

Scale Factor is: When you divide the old shape by the new shape (explanation is here)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have 2 shapes (lets say Y is the old shape and F is the new shape) you would divide the old shape (Y) by the new shape (F)

Another example: lets say shape F is 12 cm and shape Y is 7 cm (F being the old and Y being the new shape) you would divide 12 and 7 to get the answer to that problem

Answer:

a. Inscribed angle = <WXY

b. Minor arc = arc(XY)

c. VWX

d. m(VWX) = 180°

e. m<VUW = 110°

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The angle, <WXY has its vertex on the circumference of the circle. Therefore, it can be referred to as an inscribed angle of the circle with center U.

Inscribed angle = <WXY

b. Arc(XY) is a minor arc because it is smaller than half of circle with center U.

Minor arc = arc(XY)

c. A semicircle is half of a full rotation for a circle. From the diagram, a semicircle is VWX

d. m(VWX) = Half the rotation of a full circle = 180°

e. m<VUW = arc(VW) (measure of central angle = measure of arc)

m<VUW = 110° (Substitution)

Several different bus routes stop at the corner of Second St. and Lincoln Ave. A Wilkenson bus arrives every 21 minutes and a Ha
Olin [163]

Answer:

Both buses will arrive at the stop at 6:52 AM

Step-by-step explanation:

Wilkenson Bus = Arrives every 21 minutes

Harris Road Bus = Arrives every 15 minutes

Let's find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 21 and 15. LCM is found, listing the prime factors of each numbers and then multiplying each factor the greatest number of times it occurs in either numbers:

LCM 21 = 3 × 7

LCM 15 = 3 × 5

LCM (21 , 15) = 3 × 7 × 5  = 105

In 105 minutes both buses will arrive at the same time again

105 minutes = 1 h 45 min

5:07 AM + 1h 45 min = 6:52 AM
