Answer: Krista can fill 3 1/3 bowls of gelatin.
Guessing you meant by a factor of 3... not 13 since none of the solutions are anywhere close to that.
to compress is to smoosh.
It's the equation of a line. If you smoosh it vertically the line becomes flatter and the slope smaller.
Essentially g(x) = 3f(x)
3y = 12x + 6
y = (12/3)x + 6/3
y = 4x + 2
First see what 4 could go by and the answer closest to 18 that is not more than the answer is the first number of the answer.
4×1=4
4×2=8
4×3=12
4×4=16
In this case 4 is the first number of the answer because if you fo 4 by 5 it equals 20 , which is more than the answer
4×5=20
after that , you subtract the answer, 18 minus 16 which is 2 because nothing times 4 equals 2
So the remainder is 2/4 or .50

Using the proportion given, there will be 57 catfish in the pond.
The proportion given to us is
5.7/20 = x/200
Cross multiply:
5.7*200 = 20*x
1140 = 20x
Divide both sides by 20:
1140/20 = 20x/20
57 = x
The measurements are:
b₁ = 8.4 inches; b₂ = 14 inches; leg₁ = 2.8 inches; leg₂ = 2.8 inches
Let x = length of base and leg
The formula for perimeter of isosceles trapezoid is P = b₁ + b₂ + 2(leg)
Where: b = base
P = b₁ + b₂ + 2(leg)
28 = 3x + 5x + 2(x)
28 = 8x + 2x
28/10 = 10x/10
2.8 = x
Now, substitute the values:
P = b₁ + b₂ + 2(leg)
28 = 3(2.8) + 5(2.8) + 2(2.8)
28 = 8.4 + 14 + 5.6
28 = 28
Hence the measurements are:
b₁ = 8.4 inches; b₂ = 14 inches; leg₁ = 2.8 inches; leg₂ = 2.8 inches
