Step-by-step explanation:
such a scale factor applies to all sides and lines.
we see that DE is 12 units, and AB is 4 units.
so,
12×f = 4
f = 4/12 = 1/3 is the scale factor
control : check the other side
FE = 6 units
6 × 1/3 = 2
so, the corresponding side in the small triangle must be 2 units long.
and indeed, CB is 2 units long. all correct.
Answer: 2/5
Step-by-step explanation: Using the place value chart, we can see that the decimal 0.4 is four tenths, so we can write 0.4 as the fraction 4/10.
Notice however that 4/10 is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 4 and 10 which is 2.
So if we divide the numerator and the denominator by 2, we get the equivalent fraction 2/5.
Therefore, 0.4 can be written as the fraction 2/5 which is in lowest terms.
Answer:
$1,592.74
Martha will need to pay $1,592.74 more
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the compound interest/inflation formula;
A = P(1+r)^(t)
Where;
A = final value
P = initial value = $10,000
r = inflation rate = 3% = 0.03
t = time = 5 years
Substituting the values;
A = $10,000(1+0.03)^(5)
A = $11592.740743
A = $11,592.74
How much more will Martha need to save;
C = final value - initial value = A - P
C = $11,592.74 - $10,000
C = $1,592.74
Martha will need to pay $1,592.74 more
Answer:
x= 2 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3= 2/6
2 1/2= 2 3/6
2/6+ 2 3/6= 2 5/6
Hope this helps! :)
