Since BD joins the midpoints of two sides of a triangle, it is half the length of the third side, FE.
BD = (1/2)FE = (1/2)(23.5) = 11.75
Answer: B. 11.75
Numerical expression:
2 * 8 - 4 or 12
Good luck :)
Good evening ,
Answer:
In this case the dilation is a reduction (as you can see the image triangle is smaller than the original triangle)
and also the scale factor = OA’/OA = 2/6 = 1/3
since -1 < 1/3 < 1 then it’s a reduction.
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the photo below for more details (notice OA’ and OA).

To solve this, write a proportion of Pounds to Cost:
Pounds: 3 x
Cost: 25.50 42.50
Cross multiply 3 and 42.50, this gives you 127.5
Then, divide by 25.5
This gives you 5.
You can buy 5 pounds with $42.50
Vertical angles are equal, so
.. 3x +8 = 5x -20
.. 28 = 2x . . . . . . . . add 20-3x
.. 14 = x . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
Each of the vertical angles is 3*14 +8 = 50°, so the supplementary one is 130°.
.. 5*14 +4y = 130
.. 4y = 60 . . . . . . . . subtract 70
.. y = 15 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4
The values of interest are
.. x = 14
.. y = 15
