Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that figure B is a scaled copy of B, which means figure A was enlarged by a certain scale factor to get a similar figure as A, now referred to as figure B.

The scale factor = ratio of any two corresponding sides of both similar figures.

Thus,

Scale factor of the similar figures given = 40/10 = 4.

This means that, figure A was scaled up by 4 times its original size to get figure B. Each side of figure B is 4 × the corresponding side in figure A.

Scale factor = 4

Whats is y=1/3x+2 This is for math

Answer:

an equation of a line

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an equation of a line. Lets walk through it.

y=1/3x+2

This is to find out what the Y coordinate would be when X is plugged in. So, if x was 6, you would take 1/3 of 6 to get 2, and add 2. The y intercept would be 4, since y=1/3(6)+2, y=2+2, y=4

Y=1/3x+2

This is what the slope is. If the slope is negative (ie. -3/4) the greater the x intercept the lower the y will be. (so if I had x=4 for a slope of -3/4, that would be y=-3/4(4)+2, y=-3+2, y=-1) But if the slope is positive (ie. 1/3) the greater the x value the greater the y value as well. (see graph attached below for positive)

Y=1/3x+2

This is the Y intercept. (This is NOT the y coordinate. This is only the coordinate of y if x=0) This number tells you where the Y intercept is. If it adds, the y intercept is positive. If it subtracts, the y intercept is negative.

Sorry if these explainations dont make sense. But, here is the graph for y=1/3x+2
