The scale factor would be 2, since the image is 2 times bigger than the pre-image.

Answer:  The answer is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the scale factor for the dilation of a triangle shown in the figure.

The triangle ABC is dilated to form the triangle A'B'C'.

To find the scale factor, we need to divide the length of one side of the dilated triangle A'B'C' by the length of the corresponding side of the original triangle ABC.

From the figure, we note that

AB = 5 units  and  A'B' = 10 units.

Therefore, the scale factor will be

S_f=\dfrac{A'B'}{AB}=\dfrac{10}{5}=2.

Thus, the answer is 2.

Leya [2.2K]

If both triangles are congruent (that's what the sign means), then AD=CB, and CD=AB. Substituting what we are given into CD=AB,


6x-5=3x+10

Solving the equation:

3x=15

x=5

So we know that 2x+4 (the value of AD) becomes 2*5 +4, and you get 14. Since we know that AD=CB, then CB is also 14. No need to find y!

Answer: CB=14

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The profit = $(3x - 75) where x = number of t-shirts sold

Step-by-step explanation:

School spirit club wants to raise money by selling t-shirts. one local company charges a fixed fee of $75 for creating the design and $5 for each shirt that they print.

We have to find the club's income if they sell each t-shirt for $8.

Let the number of t-shirts that the club sell be equal to x.

So the cost of making x t-shirts = 75 + 5x

If the club sells x t-shirts , then the money they earn = 8x

Profit = selling price - cost price

          = 8x - (75 + 5x)

          = $(3x - 75)

The club also needs to sell at least 25 t-shirts to make a profit and from then on makes a profit of $3 on each t-shirt they sell.
