A shape that is similar to another shape will be enlarged by a scale factor. 
Each corresponding sides should give the same scale factor

Side GI corresponds to side JL
Side GH corresponds to side JK
Side HI corresponds to side KL

The correspond sides whose length are given is 
GH = 4 and JK = 8

Side JK is twice longer than GH

All the other sides of triangle JKL are twice longer than triangle GHI, so we want that the side JL to be twice of the sides GI

Side GI = 6
Side JL = 6 × 2 = 12

Answer: y = 12

William invested $800 in an account that paid 5% simple interest per year.
Blababa [14]
A) Interest = principal * rate * time

I = (800)(0.05)(3) = $120

b) $800 + $120 = $920 after the three years. $920 * (1 - 0.02) = $901.60.

The ____ of ____ property allows you to rewrite . xa· xb as xa + b.
gregori [183]
The rule of distributive property allows you to rewrite xa + xb as x (a + b).

So if x = 2, a = 3 and b = 4, xa + xb = x(a + b)
(2 * 3) + (2 * 4) = 2 (3 + 4)
6 + 8 = 14
14 = 14
...and so on. You may try it yourself with different variations.

Thank you for posting your question. I hope you found what you were after. Please feel free to ask me more.

A square poster has a side length of 26 in. Drawn on the poster are four identical triangles. Each triangle has a base of 8 in.
Firdavs [7]
To find the probability of landing on a triangle, you will want find the combined areas of the triangles and the total area of the square target.

Divide the area of the combined areas and the total area to find the probability of landing on a triangle.

A = 1/2bh
      1/2 x 8 x 8
A = 32 square inches
32 x 4
128 square inches (areas of triangles)

A = bh
     26 x 26
A = 676 square inches

128/676 = 0.189

There is an approximate probability of 0.19 of hitting a triangle.

[(-6,2),(2,3),(1,1),(-7,2),(4,2)]
denis-greek [22]
\bf \begin{array}{llll}&#10;&[(-6,2),(2,3),(1,1),(-7,2),(4,2)]\\\\&#10;inverse& [(2,-6),(3,2),(1,1),(2,-7),(2,4)]&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{is the original a one-to-one?}\qquad \stackrel{rep eated~y-values}{(-6,\stackrel{\downarrow }{2}),(2,3),(1,1),(-7,\stackrel{\downarrow }{2}),(4,\stackrel{\downarrow }{2})}

notice, the inverse set is just, the same set with the x,y turned to y,x, backwards.

is it a one-to-one?  well, for a set to be a one-to-one, it must not have any x-repeats, that is, the value of the first in the pairs must not repeat, and it also must not have any y-repeats, namely the value of the second in the pairs must not repeat.
