The most likely answer is B.
Highlighting the corresponding parts from the original in the copy is just coloring in the parts of the copy that have the same scale, for example, if the center of the scaled copy is one unit, the original could be 3 units.
So permiter=masure of all sides added together
so sides are(3x+2), (2x+5), and (4x)
so (3x+2)+(2x+5)+(4x)
use associative property
a+(b+c)=(a+b)+c so
(3x+2)+(2x+5)+(4x)=3x+2+2x+5+4x
group like terms becasue can move numbers around
(3x+2x+4x)+(2+5)
add like terms
(9x)+(7)
9x+7
he will use 9x+7=perimiter
-2 -13.8x = -8 -6x -1
First, I distributed the negative 1 that was outside of the parentheses to the positive 6x and the positive 1.
-2 -13.8x = -9 -6x
Then I added the negative 8 to the negative 1 which equals negative 9.
-2 -13.8x +6x = -9 -6x +6x
After that I used the addition property and added a positive 6x to both sides.
-2 -7.8x = -9
Then simplifying.
+2 -2 -7.8x = -9 +2
After simplifying, I used the addition property again, adding a positive 2 to both sides.
-7.8x = -7
Simplified.
-7.8x (-1) = -7 (-1)
Then I multiplied both sides by with a negative 1 since the variable cannot be a negative.
7.8x = 7
Simplified
(1/7.8) 7.8x = (1/7.8) 7
Then, to isolate the veriable, I multiplied 1/7.8 to both sides.
x = 1.11428571429
The answer !
I hope this helped !
Solution: x=1/3
decimal: x=0.3333...
Let x be the number you want to find
435= x times 25 times 3
435= 75x
X= 435/75 =5.8 (ans)
