Two polygons are similar. The perimeter of the larger polygon is 85 meters and the ratio of the corresponding side lengths is $\
frac{2}{5}$
. Find the perimeter of the other polygon.
The perimeter of the other polygon is
meters.
1 answer:
Answer:
The perimeter of the other polygon is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratios of its perimeter is equal to the scale factor
Let
z---> the scale factor
x----> the perimeter of the other polygon
y----> the perimeter of the larger polygon
so

we have


substitute and solve for x

Answer:
1/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = (1/8)^x
when x = 1/3
f(x) = (1/8)^1/3
f(x) = ∛(1/8)
f(x) = 1 / ∛8
f(x) = 1/2.

Answer:
2 solutions; x=2.5 x=-25
Step-by-step explanation:
16x^2 = 100
x^2 = 100/16
x^2 = 6.25
x = (+-) sqrt 6.25
x = (+-) 2.5
