Explain how the number of pieces in a whole relates to the size of each piece?

Mathematics

Bumek [7]3 years ago

Assuming the size of the whole remains constant, as you divide the whole into more pieces, each piece must be smaller. For example, when a whole is divided into four pieces vs nine pieces, 1/4 of the whole is larger than 1/9 of a whole.

Joe is 3 times as old as Pepe In how many years will Joe be only twice as old as Pepe ? How old are they now? How old will they
antoniya [11.8K]
Let x = Wally's age now

Then, 3x = Jose's age now

Wally's age 5 years from now = x+5

Jose's age 5 years from now = 3x+5

(x+5) + (3x+5) = 42

4x + 10 = 42

4x = 32 x = 8

Wally is 8 years old and Jose is 24.

Solve system by elimination<br> y=x^2<br> y=x+2<br> SHOW YOUR WORK
Dimas [21]
We have that
y=x²----> equation 1<span>
y=x+2-----> equation 2

multiply equation 1 by -1
-y=-x</span>²

add equation 1 and equation 2
-y=-x²
 y=x+2
------------
0=-x²+x+2-------------> -x²+x+2=0-----> x²-x-2=0

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

(x²-x)=2
<span>Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side
</span>(x²-x+0.5²)=2+0.5²

Rewrite as perfect squares

(x-0.5)²=2+0.5²
(x-0.5)²=2.25-----> (x-0.5)=(+/-)√2.25-----> (x-0.5)=(+/-)1.5
x1=1.5+0.5-----> x1=2
x2=-1.5+0.5---- > x2=-1

for x=2
y=x²----> y=2²----> y=4
the point is (2,4)

for x=-1
y=x²----> y=(-1)²---> y=1
the point is (-1,1)

the answer is
the solution of the system are the points
(2,4) and (-1,1)

Can y’all help me with the question in the picture please? I don’t understand it and I’ve been stuck on it for a while

Answer:

The scale factor is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the vertical sides of the 2 triangles.

Their length is 3 and 6 so the scale factor is 6/3 = 2.

Also we see than the horizontal lines are in the same ratio 4 : 2  = 2:1.
