Find the scale factor of the smaller figure to the larger figure

guapka [62]

Answer:

#9: 1.2

#10: 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the scale factor of the smaller figure to the larger figure, we're going to be dividing the measurements of corresponding edges.

$\frac{larger figure}{smaller figure}$

If you wanted to find the scale factor of the larger figure to the smaller figure, you'd do: $\frac{smaller figure}{larger figure}$

Question #9:

Left edges: $\frac{larger figure}{smaller figure}$ ⇒ $\frac{24}{20}$ = 1.2

Bottom edges: $\frac{larger figure}{smaller figure}$ ⇒ $\frac{30}{25}$ = 1.2

(You should get the same number as long as the figures are similar.)

Question #10:

Bottom edges: $\frac{larger figure}{smaller figure}$ ⇒ $\frac{30}{24}$ = 1.25

(There are no corresponding edges with measurements that we can compare.)

For every 140 feet that Kelly rides on her bicycle, the wheels turn 20 times. About how many times do the wheels turn in 5 miles

Mars2501 [29]

Answer: The wheels turn about 3771 times in 5 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Kelly rides on her bicycle such that the number of times wheels turn for every 140 feet = 20

Turns for every feet = $\dfrac{20}{140}=\dfrac{1}{7}$ ...(i)

To find : Number of times wheels turn in 5 miles.

Since , 1 mile = 5,280 feet

Then, 5 miles = 5 x (5,280 feet) = 26,400 feet

Now , Number of times the wheels turn in 26,400 feet = 26400 x (Turns for every feet)

$26400\times\dfrac{1}{7}=3771.42857143\approx3771$ [From (i)

Hence, the wheels turn about 3771 times in 5 miles.

A chemical company makes two brands of antifreeze. The first brand is 45% pure antifreeze, and the second brand is 95% pure anti

Lesechka [4]

Let x = amount of 45% antifreezeLet y = amount of 70% antifreeze EQUATION 1: x + y = 150 (total of 150 gallons mixed) EQUATION 2: .45x + .75y = .55(x + y) Simplify and solve the system of equations Multiply second equation by 100 on both sides to remove the decimals 45x + 75y = 55(x + y) Combine like terms 45x + 75y = 55x + 55y 45x - 55x + 75y - 55y = 0 -10x + 20y = 0 Now we have the following system of equations: x + y = 150 -10x + 20y = 0 Multiply the first equation by -10 to get opposite coefficients for x; add the equations to eliminate x 10x + 10y = 1500 -10x + 20y = 0 ------------------------------ 30y = 1500 Solve for y 30y = 1500 y = 50 Since the total mixed gallons is 150, x = 150 - 50 = 100 So we need 100 gallons of the 45% antifreeze and 50 gallons of the 70% antifreeze
