Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Pieces of gum given by Sophia = x

Pieces of gum left with Sophia after giving x pieces = 25 - x

Pieces of gum given by Maria = 2 × Gums given by Sophia = 2x

Pieces of gum left with Maria after giving 2x pieces = 75 - 2x

Pieces of gum left with Sophia = Pieces of gum left with Maria

25 - x = 75 - 2x

2x - x = 75 - 25

x = 50

Pieces of gum left with Sophia is 50.

Lilit [14]

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

For triangle A to be a scale model of triangle B, x must equal 5. This is because all side lengths must be reduced by the same ratio. In this case that ratio is 2.5. 12.5/2.5=5
