Given:
Square DEFG = SIDE LENGTH = 2 UNITS
Square D'E'F'G' = SIDE LENGTH = 6 UNITS
The question was which scale factor was used to dilate square DEFG to square D'E'F'G'
From a side length of 2 units to a side length of 6 units
The scale factor used is 3.
2 * scale factor = 6
scale factor = 6/2
scale factor = 3
Ration or ratio? I'm assuming ratio. 12:13 I think.... let me know if I'm wrong
For this case we have the following conversions:
1 yard = 3 feet
The estimate distance Is:
400yd = 1200feet
200yd=600 feet
Ten, the estimate Is:
1200 + 600 = 1800 feet
The real distance Is:
The total distance in yards is given by:
440 + 220 = 660 yd
Then, let's transform this distance to feet, with the given conversion:
660 * 3 = 1980 feet
The distance traveled is reasonable for a person
Comparing the estimate and the actual answer, the distance malcom Ran Is reasonable.
Answer:
Malcolm ran 1980 feet.
The distance is reasonable.
Hello Kiddo.
This question is a bit confusing to me, but I think I grasped the concept.
1. x best represents Sarah's mom's age.
2. x - 24 best represents Sarah's mom's age minus how much younger Sarah is than her mom.
3. The expression would look a little like this:
2x-24 = 68
+ 24 +24
2x = 92
/2 /2
x = 46.
Which means, Sarah is 22 and her mom is 46 years of age.
If you need more clarification, I'd be more than happy to elaborate further.
