Triangle A is the original triangle, and triangle A' is the image.

We need a pair of corresponding sides in the two triangles that are both labeled with lengths.

We see the side labeled 15.2 mm in triangle A', and we see the side labeled 3.8 mm in triangle A. These two sides are corresponding sides.

Divide the length of the side in the image by the length of the side in the original to find the scale factor.

(15.2 mm)/(3.8 mm) = 4

The scale factor is 4.

Use the commutative property to solve for n 98,551+2,851=2,841+n n=

dezoksy [38]

If the commutative property indicates that a+b=b+a with the problem being 98,551+2,841=2,841+n, its a pretty safe assumption that n would equal 98,551. a would be 98,551 as b would be 2,841.

What is the constant of the expression? 5x−2y+2.4

Leno4ka [110]

The correct answer is the 2.4

The constant in an equation is the number(s) that don't have variables.

This is because variables can change the number they are attached to, making them not constant.

Hope this helps!
