The correct answer for this question is this one: "<span>147"</span>

Here's how to solve this problem.

Let  <span>x = number of mystery books on the shelf </span>
<span>Let 3x = total number of books on the shelf </span>

<span>we are told that </span>
<span>x/5<10<x/4 </span>
<span>multiply by 20, </span>
<span>4x<200<5x </span>
<span>which means that </span>
<span>40<x<50 </span>
<span>So the number of mystery books can be any number between 41 and 49.
In other words, the possible total number of books could be three times the above numbers, 123, 126, 129,.... </span>
Choose the one that suits your answer choices.

Here are the following choices:
Which could be the number of books on the shelf? 
A. 120 B 140 c 147 D 150

(05.08A)Triangle ABC is transformed to similar triangle A′B′C′ below:
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

1st option is correct i.e., 1 over 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Triangle ABC transformed to Triangle A'B'C'.

Coordinated of Triangle ABC are A(2,6) , B(2,4) and C(4,4)

Coordinated of Triangle A'B'C' are A'(1,3), B'(1,2) and C'(2,2)

Scale factor of Dilation is the no. of times coordinates of vertices of a figure increase or decrease.i.e.,

if A(a,b) ⇒ A'(c,d)

where, a.k=c & b.k=d then k is scale factor of dilation.

Value of k is same for all vertices.

For coordinates of A & A' ,we have 2.k=1\implies k=\frac{1}{2} \:\: and \:\: 6.k=3\implies k=\frac{1}{2}

For coordinates of B & B' ,we have 2.k=1\implies k=\frac{1}{2} \:\: and \:\: 4.k=2\implies k=\frac{1}{2}

For coordinates of C & C' ,we have 4.k=2\implies k=\frac{1}{2} \:\: and \:\: 4.k=2\implies k=\frac{1}{2}

Therefore, the scale factor of dilation is \:\frac{1}{2}\:  since in all cases k=\frac{1}{2}

1st option is correct i.e., 1 over 2
