The scale factor is 4 (10/2.5).
Each side has increased by a factor of 4. Think of it logically, if the original rectangle had sides of 1,1,1/4,1/4, the perimeter would add to 2.5. In order to get the sides to add up to 10, each of the sides would need to be multiplied by 4. Then our sides would measure 4,4,1,1 with a perimeter of 10.
Answer:
Trapezoid
Step-by-step explanation:
So there's four sides on a trapezoid. The top and bottom ones are parallel. But they're not congruent. I don't think... Anyway, good luck.
Answer:
= n - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Note the difference between consecutive terms is constant, that is
0 - (- 1) = 0 + 1 = 1
1 - 0 = 1
2 - 1 = 1
3 - 2 = 1
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with n th term
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = - 1 and d = 1, thus
= - 1 + n - 1 = n - 2
