18/7.2 = 2.5
Figure A is 2.5 times the size of figure B
The scale factor is 2.5
Divide the paper which is 21 inches (12+9) by 1.5 and you have your answer which is 14
The image is here, i am struggled with this problems too please help!
Well for answer 23 is -6 √(5) + 6 √(2).
The answer for 25 is -3 √(5) - 2 √(6)
And the answer for 27 is -15 √(5) + 4 √(3) + 3 √(6)
Hope this helps :)
