Answer:
I am having a hard time reading the letters, so I hope this makes sense. I think that the numbers for the top triangles is given is 6 and 3. That means that the scale factor from the little to the big is 2 and from the big to the little is 1/2. It is the same for the bottom triangles.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the triangles are similar the scale factors will be the same for all three corresponding sides of the triangle. You find the two sides that are corresponding and ask yourself what do I have to multiple the side of of triangle to get the new triangle.
If one side is 3 and the other triangles side is 6. I am asking myself what do I have to multiple 3 by to get 6? 2. That is my scale factor.
3x = 6
x = 2
The scale factors are always reciprocals of each other. If I go the other direction I can write the equation
6x = 3 and when I divide both sides by 6, I get a scale factor of 1/2.
The bottom triangles:
2.5 x = 5
x = 2
and
5x = 2.5
x =1/2
Answer:
0.56
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 14 girls, and a total of 25 students. So the probability of selecting a girl is P = 14/25 = 0.56.
• Increased by 3
n+3
• Twice the number
2(n+3)
• Three times the number
3n
• Final result
2(n+3)-3n
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Debbie's Deals has the better deal with a price of $0.19 per ounce compared to Bill's Bargains at $0.21 per ounce.
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide $3.36 by 16 = $0.21
Divide $7.60 by 40 = $0.19
Debbie's Deals sells the Circle O's cereal for a cheaper per ounce price thus it's the better price and the better deal.
Good luck!
