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.
No because 22 squared plus 24 squared does not = 26 squared
First, convert 7 kilometers to meters, which is 7000 meters.
Add that to 400, and now you he ran 7400 meters.
Now convert 1.6 kilometers to meters, which is 1600 meters.
Add that to 7400, and the total is 9000 meters.
Hope this helped!
It has 3 zeros, because its a polynomial of degree 3.
Distance between the two cities:
453 - 333 = 120 miles.
Rest area is 2/3 of the way:
120 x 2/3 = 240/3 = 80 miles.
Divide the miles to the rest stop by his speed:
80 miles/ 60 miles per hour = 1 and 1/3 hours as a fraction. 1.3333 as a decimal( round as needed.
( 1 hour and 20 minutes)
