Little tip ** if u r going from a larger shape to a smaller shape, the scale factor is going to be a proper fraction....a number less then 1 but greater then 0

BC = 66......EF = 11.......66 times what is 11
66x = 11
x = 11/66 reduces to 1/6
so 66 * 1/6 = 11

now compare the other sides...
42 * 1/6 = 7.......looks like AC and DF
72 * 1/6 = 12...looks like Ab and DE

so ur multiplying every number in the big triangle by 1/6 , and getting the measures of the little triangle....so ur scale factor is 1/6 <==

Emily tried solving a two step equation for the variable. Interpret whether she made a mistake or not. If she did, describe what
Daniel [21]
-1 = z/3 - 7

Emily's Work:

-1 = z/3 - 7

-1(3)=z/3(3)-7

-3 = z - 7 

-3 -7 = z - 7 

z = -10

Right away without having to start at the beginning, I see that she has made a mistake at the 4th-5th line of work.


Instead of adding 7 to both sides, she subtracts it and still leaves it in and doesn't fully finish the equation, as it would really be z-7 = -10

In order to solve it, follow these steps:

Rewrite the initial equation as follows:

x/3 - 7 = -1 

Multiply both sides by 3
x/3(3)-7(3)=-1(3)

x - 21 = -3

Add 21 to both sides

x = 18
