Answer:

$\frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side length for the octagon having 9m² as area = x

Side length for the octagon having area of 25m² = y.

Thus:

$\frac{9}{25} = (\frac{x}{y})^2$ (area of similar polygons theorem)

The scale factor of their sides would be $\frac{x}{y}$ . Which is:

$\sqrt{\frac{9}{25}} = \frac{x}{y}$

$\frac{\sqrt{9}}{\sqrt{25}} = \frac{x}{y}$

$\frac{3}{5} = \frac{x}{y}$

Scale factor of their sides = $\frac{3}{5}$

Maths-please help Factorise 3y+15

djyliett [7]

Answer:

3(y + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factorization is a process which is like the opposite of expansion. It involves factoring out the common factors from the given terms.

Thus to factorize 3y + 15, we have to consider the common factor(s) of the two terms. The common factor is 3 because the two terms (i.e 3y and 15) are both divisible by 3 only.

So that:

3y + 15= 3( $\frac{3y}{3}$ + $\frac{15}{3}$ )

= 3(y + 5)

The outcome of the process is 3(y + 5).
