Okay, so your scale rectangle has a length of l = 8.2 cm. The actual triangle has a length of L = 41 cm. What is the scale factor? You find out by dividing the scale rectangle l from the actual rectangle L.

41 cm / 8.2 cm = 5

The scale factor is 5. That means the actual rectangle is exactly 5 times bigger than the scale rectangle. Now finding the width is easy! If the width of the scale rectangle is 2.1 cm and the scale factor is 5, you just multiply them together!

2.1 cmx 5 = 10.5 cm

The width of the actual rectangle is 10.5 cm! Hope that helps!

Answer:

Brandon

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: Branden and Pete each play running back. Branden carries the ball $75$ times for $550$ yards, and Pete has $42$ carries for $380$ yards.

TO FIND: Who runs farther per carry.

SOLUTION:

Total yards traveled by Brandon $=550\text{yards}$

No. of times ball carried by Brandon $=75\text{ times}$

Average yards per carry for Brandon $=\frac{\text{total yards traveled}}{\text{number of times ball carried}}$

$=\frac{550}{75}$

$=\frac{22}{3}\text{ yards per carry}$

$=7.33\text{ yards per carry}$

Total yards traveled by Pete $=380\text{ yards}$

No. of times ball carried by Pete $=42\text{ times}$

Average yards per carry for Pete $=\frac{\text{total yards traveled}}{\text{number of times ball carried}}$

$=\frac{380}{42}$

≅ $9\text{ yards per carry}$

As the number of yards per carry is higher for Brandon , therefore he runs farther per carry.
