Answer: 35 inches</h3>
Each side of the pentagon is multiplied by 5/3 to get the length of each new side, so the perimeter is multiplied by 5/3 to get the new perimeter.
New perimeter = (scale factor)*(old perimeter)
New perimeter = (5/3)*(old perimeter)
New Perimeter = (5/3)*(21)
New Perimeter = (5/3)*(21/1)
New Perimeter = (5*21)/(3*1)
New Perimeter = 105/3
New Perimeter = 35 inches
It would be the first graph because the slope would be zero making it the smallest
The -4 would be your y-intercept and the 2x would be your slope. So you would put a mark on the-4 on the y axis and go up 2 and to the right 1 to plot your line. The second one would put your starting dot on the (0,0) and go up 2 and to the right 1 to get your line. Because you would look at the 2x as 2/1x.
Hope i could help
1) In a proportion: y/x=k
k is your constant of proportionality.
x is your independent variable and y is your dependent variable.
Since you need 3 oz of flour for each 2 oz of sugar, y=3 and x=2.
So k=1.5 (3/2)
3)
a) y/x as a showed above. This question is very similar to #1.
b) y/x=k
