Answer:

The length of diagonal PS and diagonal P'S' are in the ratio 1:3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparing the coordinates of the vertices,

P(0, -3)→P'(0, -9); Q(3, -2)→Q'(9, -6); R(3, 1)→R'(9, 3); S(0, 2)→S'(0, 6); T(-2, 0)→T'(-6, 0)

We can see that the pre-image points have been multiplied by a scale factor of 3. This means comparing the pre-image sides to the image sides, the ratio is 1:3. However, we must compare corresponding sides; the only choice comparing corresponding sides with a ratio of 1:3 is PS to P'S'.

Find the surface area and no links

Oliga [24]

Answer:

184 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface Area = 2(10*2) + 2(10*6) + 2(2*6)

Surface Area = 2(20 + 60 + 12)

Surface Area = 2(92)

Surface Area = 184 m²

CPCTC means the corresponding parts of congruent triangle that are congruent.
So, angle GAE is approximately equal to angle GEA.

The standard tip in a restaurant is 15% of the bill before tax. Many people in California find the tip by doubling the sales tax

cricket20 [7]

To answer this you could do a couple things. 1. Actually calculate both tips and then subtract them. Here is the math ( assuming it is $60, not 60% that you mean). a. 0.15 x 60 = $9. b. 0.0825 x 2 x 60=$9.90. c. 9.90-9.00= $0.90 difference.

The other strategy would be to find the difference on the percents and then multiply by $60. a. 8.25%x2=16.5%-15%. Difference of 1.5%. b. 0.015 x $60=$0.90.

Marge drive 290 miles in five hours. Three hours were on the interstate, then the remainder of the trip was on a road that cause

vivado [14]

Marge drove by 66 miles per hour on the interstate

Step-by-step explanation:

Marge drive 290 miles in five hours, her trip has two stages

She drove 3 hours on the interstate
The remainder of the trip was on a road that caused her to reduce her speed by 20 mph

We need to find how fast Marge drove on the interstate

Assume that she drove by speed x miles per hour on interstate

∵ Distance = speed × time

∵ Her speed on the interstate is x mph

∵ The time of interstate is 3 hours

∴ The distance of interstate = x × 3 = 3x miles

∵ The time of the total trip is 5 hours

∵ She spent 3 hours on the interstate

∴ The time of the remainder of the trip = 5 - 3 = 2 hours

∵ She reduced her speed 20 mph for the remainder of the trip

∴ Her speed on the remainder of the trip = x - 20 mph

∴ The remainder distance = (x - 20) × 2

∴ The remainder distance = 2x - 40 miles

∵ The total distance of the trip is 290 miles

- Equate the sum of the two distances above by 290

∴ 3x + 2x - 40 = 290

- Add the like terms in the left hand side

∴ 5x - 40 = 290

- Add 40 to both sides

∴ 5x = 330

- Divide both sides by 5

∴ x = 66

Marge drove by 66 miles per hour on the interstate
