Answer:

D) 1 /2 (AC) = A'C'

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is 1 /2 AC = A'C'. The side lengths in ΔABC are twice the side lengths in ΔA'B'C'.

Answer:

The length of segment AC is two times the length of segment A'C'

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and this ratio is called the scale factor

Let

z ----> the scale factor

A'C' ----> the length of segment A'C'

AC ----> the length of segment AC

$z=\frac{A'C'}{AC}$

we have that

$z=50\%=50/100=\frac{1}{2}$ ---> the dilation is a reduction, because the scale factor is less than 1 and greater than zero

substitute

$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{A'C'}{AC}$

$AC=2A'C'$

therefore

The length of segment AC is two times the length of segment A'C'

Suppose f(x) - x = 2/ x. Fincd f(- 3)

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

To find the mode you need to check the number which is more often repeated in the set than the other.But as you can see here there is no number which is repeated more often than the other everyone is repeated once,so in this case we say that the set of data values has no mode.

To find the the range of the set of data you need to first place the numbers in ascending order (as it is already in) and then find the greatest and the smallest number and subtract them.

Range :

10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100,110,120,130,140,150.

Greatest number = 150.

Smallest number = 10.

Subtract = 150-10 = 140.

Answer: Statements 2 and 3

Step-by-step explanation:

On a drawing scale;

1cm - 4m

4CM - 16M (MULTIPLYING BY 4)

6cm - 24m (multiplying by 6)

7cm - 28m (multiplying by 7)

8cm - 32m (multiplying by 8)

9CM - 36M (MULTIPLYING BY 9)

Bath and 1 yard of ribbon. She is 1/2 yard for project. She wants to divide the rest of the ribbon into pieces 1/4 yards long. H

ikadub [295]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total length of ribbon = 1 yard

Length of ribbon used for project = $\frac{1}{2}$ yard

Length of ribbon the rest of ribbon is to be divided = $\frac{1}{4}$ yard

To find:

The number of ribbons of length $\frac{1}{4}$ yard that can be made = ?

Solution:

Length of ribbon left after the 1 yard ribbon is used for project can be calculated by subtracting the length of ribbon used from the initial length of ribbon.

i.e.

Length of ribbon left = $1-\frac{1}{2} =\frac{1}{2}$ yard

Now, number of ribbon of length $\frac{1}{4}$ yard can be found be dividing the length of ribbon left with the length of ribbon pieces to be cut.

i.e.

Number of ribbons:

$\dfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{4}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\times 4 = 2$
