*see attachment showing the two polygons in a grid.

Answer:

No, PQRST is not a scale copy of ABCDE because we the sides are not increased proportionally.

Step-by-step explanation:

A polygon can be said to be a scaled copy of another polygon, if the the same scale factor is used in scaling every segment of the preimage or original image to get the length of the corresponding segments of the scale copy or image. In order words, all segments must be scaled proportionally.

Polygon PQRST, which is the new image, has different scale factors used in scaling the various segments of the preimage. In simple terms, the sides of PQRST were not increased proportionally. Therefore, PQRST is not a scaled copy of ABCDE.

in three plays of a football game, there is a gain of 4 yards, a loss of 9 yards, and a gain of 15 yards. What number can you us
Aloiza [94]

We can use minus(-) sign i.e. -9 to represent loss of 9 yards.

<h3>Write the difference between gain and loss.</h3>

The word “gain” implies “acquiring something”.

Gain means to acquire something one desires especially because of one’s efforts.

Gain means to get something additional, for example, to gain more speed, to gain more weight.

We can denote gain by using plus(+) sign before the given number.

“Loss” generally means “to lose something one already has.”

Loss means the deprivation from keeping something, for example, bearing the loss of a theft.

It refers to something which is lost, for example, the theft of jewelry was a great loss.

We can denote loss by using minus(-) sign before the number.

In the given question it is said that there is gain of 4 yards, loss of 9 yards and gain of 15 yards.

It is asked that how would we represent 9 yards loss.

We know that we use minus(-) sign to represent loss.

So we can represent loss of 9 yards by writing it as -9.

Leave the answer as an improper fraction​
Ghella [55]

Hey there!

ANSWER: \frac{23}{20}

EXPLANATION:

To find the answer to your question, you will need to add.

\frac{3}{4}+\frac{2}{5}

First, multiply the denominator.

5*4=20

So the denominator will be 20.

Now move on to the numerator. Multiply 5 by 3.

5*3=15

Now multiply 4 bu 2.

4*2=8

If you want to get the numerator, add what you got after multiply.

15+8=23

The numerator is 23. So now let's complete the fraction.

\frac{23}{20}

This is your answer!

Hope this helps!

Geometry help with number 18!
lora16 [44]
BE is parallel to CD, therefore, m∠BEC=m∠ECD, therefore mBC=mDE
BE is the diameter, so Arc BE is 180 degree
mBC+mCD+mDE=180
replace mCD with 3mBC, and replace mDE with mBC: mBC+3mBC+mBC=180
5mBC=180
mBC=180/5=36
mCD=3mBC=3*36=108
the inscirbed angle m∠ECD= the measure of arc DE=36
