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.
I always found it easiest to draw out the picture

Step-by-step explanation:
9 - x ≤17
At some point you are going to have to turn the equation around. This would not normally be your first step, but this time it is better to start with it.
We won't do it directly. The best way to do it is to add x to both sides before you do anything else. This is not the usual way to solve these equations, but it's a good time to learn.
Inequality Rule: you must always solve for x. If it is -x then you are going to have to make an adjustment to get the x to be positive.
9 - x ≤ 17 Add x to both sides
9 - x+x ≤ 17 + x Combine
9 ≤ 17 + x Subtract 17 from both sides.
9 - 17 ≤ 17 - 17 + x
8 ≤ x
Notice that you have effectively changed the ≤ sign around, not because you have, but because the x reads differently now. It started out 9 - x ≤ 17 and when you finish solving it you get 8 is less than or equal to x. Entirely different.
