Answer:
5/9
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't see a drawing of the quadrilaterals, so I don't know what the perimeter of quadrilateral P is. But whatever the perimeter of P is, Q will be 1/3 of that. Perimeter is a length, so even though it may pertain to a 2-dimensional object, it is still a 1-dimensional, linear measure. When two objects are similar (same shape, but scaled up or down by a scale factor), all corresponding linear measures have the same scale factor.
If you were asked about area or volume, that would be a different matter. In the case of area, you would square the scale factor, and in the case of volume, you would cube the scale factor.
Answer:
red: x
blue: 2x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
let the number of red chips= x
let the number of blue chips= 2x+3
If you used $8, then you must add 8 to 32 which equals $40
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply through by x+5
2(x + 1) = x + 5 - 1 Combine like terms
2x + 2 = x + 4 Subtract 2 from both sides.
2x = x + 4 - 2
2x = x + 2 Subtract x from both sides.
2x - x = 2 Combine
x = 2
