Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
For polygon PQRST to be considered a scaled copy of polygon ABCDE, it means every segments of polygon ABCDE were increased proportionally by a scale factor.
The segments in polygon PQRST were not gotten using the same scale factor, hence, it is not a scaled copy of the original polygon, ABCDE.
Segment CD = 2 units, it corresponds to segment RS = 4 units. Scale factor = RS/CD = 4/2 = 2
Segment BC = 1 unit, it corresponds to segment QR = 1 unit. Scale factor = QR/BC = 1/1 = 1 units.
Varying scale factor shows polygon PQRST is not a scaled copy of polygon ABCDE.
Answer:
k = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles angels added up must equal 180 degrees, and the top angle is 65 degrees by the 180 degree rule.
So 10k + 15 must equal the remaining 115
subtract 15 from each side and you get 10k = 100
divide each each by 10 and you get the answer of k = 10
Answer:
AB = 25 units
Step-by-step explanation:
In right triangle ACB, 
Therefore, by geometric mean property:
AB = AD + DB
AB = 20 + 5
AB = 25 units
50 + .35x = 75 + .25x
.1x = 25
25 divided by .1 is 250
going back and checking my work:
50 + .35 (250) = 137.5
75 + .25(250) = 137.5
So the answer is 250 miles
I believe that you could factor (x+1) out of the polynomial
