Answer:

Option B) YES; 2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

In these triangles ΔRPQ and ΔVAQ we have been given few measurements like

∠RPQ = ∠VAQ = 90°

Length of AV =3, AQ = 4 &

Length of RP =6, PQ = 8

Now we have been asked about the scale factor of these two triangle and similarity between them.

As we know if two sides of a triangle is in the same ratio of the other triangle and angle between these sides is same then triangles are similar.

In other words ratio of sides RP:AV = PQ:AQ

                                         ⇒ \frac{RP}{AV} = \frac{PQ}{AQ}

                                         ⇒\frac{6}{3} = \frac{8}{4}

                                         ⇒ 2:1 =2:1

And angle between them ∠RPQ = ∠VAQ = 90°

Therefore bothe the triangles are following rule of SAS so similar with a scale factor of 2:1.

Yes 2:1 you know this because the short sides, 3 and 6 are in the same ratio as the long sides, 4 and 8

How are polynomials like and unlike monomials? Provide an example of a monomial and an example of a polynomial. How does the fol
Ainat [17]
A polynomial is the sum of at least one term. For example, x^3+1 is a polynomial. A monomial is a polynomial with only one term, such as 2x^2. A binomial is a polynomial with two terms, and a trinomial is one with three terms. The example you gave is a trinomial (which is also a polynomial). Degree of a polynomial is the largest sum of variable powers in any term of the polynomial. So, for example, x^2 y has degree 3, and x^3+x^2 also has degree 3. A sixth degree polynomial would be x^6-2x+1, for example.

A preschool teacher has 17.5 feet of yarn for her students to make necklaces to raise money for a local animal shelter each neck
Scorpion4ik [409]
17.5x12=210
210 divided by 14=15
15x2.50=37.5
37.5
17.5 is feet so you need to divide by 12 for inches which gets 210 and you need each necklace to be 14 inches so you need to divide 210 by 14 which is 15 each necklace costs 2.50 so you multiply 2.50x15
You get 37.5

rectangle with a perimeter of 1110 meters, this rectangular shape is 30 meters longer than 6 times its width. find its dimension
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The width of the rectangle is  75 meters and length is 480 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the rectangle = 1110 meters

Let the width of the rectangle = k meters

So,the length of the rectangle = 6k + 30

Now, PERIMETER OF A RECTANGLE = 2(LENGTH + WIDTH)

⇒ 1110 = 2( k + (6k + 30))

or, 1110 = 14 k + 60

or, 14 k = 1110 - 60 = 1050

⇒ k = 1050/14 = 75

Hence, the width of the rectangle is k =  75 meters

and the Length of the rectangle is 6k + 30 = 6(75) +30

= 480 meters

Complete the input-output table for linear function y=3x
Veseljchak [2.6K]

The input and output table for the linear function y = 3x is (-2, -6), (-1, -3), (0, 0), (1, 3) and (2, 6).

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Given the linear function y = 3x:

When x = -2; y = 3(-2) = -6

When x = -1; y = 3(-1) = -3

When x = 0; y = 3(0) = 0

When x = 1; y = 3(1) = 3

When x = 2; y = 3(2) = 6

The input and output table for the linear function y = 3x is (-2, -6), (-1, -3), (0, 0), (1, 3) and (2, 6).
