Given:

In the given figure, PS=x, RS=35, UV=20, VW=25 and TW=15
To find:
The scale factor from PQRS to TUVW.
Solution:
We have,

We know that the corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional. The scale factor is the ratio of one side of image and corresponding side of preimage.
The scale factor is:



Therefore, the scale factor from PQRS to TUVW is
.
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
Because it is asking for the amount of times and the dots land in 1,2,3,4,5,6 hope this helps :D
I don’t understand how you worded the question but x=-4 if thats what you are looking for
Let t represent Todd's age now.
.. 4(t -3) -(t -3) = 81 . . . . . . 3 years ago, their differnce in ages was 81.
.. 3t -9 = 81
.. t = (81 +9)/3 = 30
Todd is 30 now.
_____
You can also work this by considering "ratio units." 3 years ago, the ratio of their ages was 4:1, a difference of 3. That difference corresponds to 81 years, so each "ratio unit" represents 81/3 = 27 years. Todd's age then was 1 ratio unit, 27 years. Now, Todd's age is 30.
