Let's call 'it' x. 1/2 is equal to one third of x, so we could say that 1/3x = 1/2
Now we just have a simple equation to solve:
1/3x = 1/2
x = (1/2) / (1/3)
Dividing by a rational number (such as 1/3, which is expressed in fraction form) is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal (the reciprocal of a fraction is itself when the numerator and denominator have been swapped). Therefore
x = (1/2) / (1/3) = (1/2) * 3 = 3/2 = 1.5
To check this answer, test the statement. Half is a third of x, where x=1.5:
1.5 / 3 = 0.5 = 1/2
Answer:
the percent is almost 42.9
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is C) glide and reflection because if it were graphed, it would be reflected a line equal to x and slid, or glided upward. Hope this helps! :D
Yes because a triangles are is 1/3 b x h and a rectangles area is just b x h. The triangle would get smaller because it doesn’t have one corner, and the rectangle would keep a constant size.
