Answer:
No, because they look like they are different sizes. Or you could say the first answer
Answer:
Turn everything into fractions. You can also combine like terms.
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a proportion
EA / EB = ED/ EC
16 / (5x + 2 + 16) = 12 / (12 + 24)
16/(5x + 18) = 12 / 36 Cross multiply
16 * 36 = (4x + 18)*12 Remove the brackets
576 = 48x + 216 Subtract 216 from both sides.
360 = 48x Divide by 48
360/48 = x
7.5 = x
Divide the sides of the larger triangle by the corresponding side of the smaller one:
18/7.2 = 2.5
Figure A is 2.5 times the size of figure B
The scale factor is 2.5
The orgin or it mean that there was no money or candy so it would be (0,0).
