Answer:
the scale factor is 1/4 because the big one has four squares on the bottom so it's four times as big
6(4x + 5) = 3(x + 8) + 3
24x + 30 = 3x + 24 + 3
24x + 30 = 3x + 27
24x - 3x = 27 - 30
21x = - 3
x = -3/21
x = - 0.143 <==
A and D are correct. To understand this, you need to know that this scenario gives us a total (2 1/2 cups) and a part (1/4). When you have these 2 pieces of information you have either a division problem with a total divided into parts (choice D) or you have one part and a totol shown as a multiplication problem (choice A).
<span>5x-102=13
Add 102 to both sides
5x=115
Divide 5 on both sides
Final Answer: x=23</span>
