Answer:
scale factor = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Compare the ratio of corresponding sides, image to original.
AB = 6 units and A'B' = 2 units, thus
scale factor =
=
= 
Regarding your (1/10 divided by 2/5): I'm going to regard this as
(1/10) divided by (2/5).
First, write
1
---
10
Invert the fraction 2/5 and then multiply 1/10 by 5/2:
1(5)
-------- = 1/4, after reducing 5/10.
10(2)
Thus, <span>−34+(1/10÷2/5) yields -34 + 1/4, or -33 3/4.</span>
Since it's a right triangle you can use the Pythagorean theorem or Trig (Soh Cah Toa).
I'll just use the Pythagorean theorem : a² + b² = c²
a = 9
b = x
c = 18
9² + x² = 18²
81 + x² = 324
x² = 324 - 81
x² = 243
x = √(243)
factor 243 to find a perfect square
x = √(3*81)
x = 9√(3)<u />
Answer:
You collected 1,395 kg.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since each pound would be 45 kg and you collected 31 pounds more then you would have to multiply 45 times 31.
