Answer: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  Triangle UVW map to triangle XYZ where Triangle UVWhas side Lengths 3,4,2, and triangle XYZ has lengths 14,28,21.

We know that the scale factor between two similar figures is the the ratio of the corresponding side of image to the original figure.

Let k be the scale factor.

Then,

k=\frac{21}{3}=\frac{14}{2}=\frac{28}{4}=7\\\\\Rightarrow\ k=7

Hence, the scale factor = 7

A bag contains an unknown number of marbles. You know that P(red) = 1 and P(green) = 1. What can you conclude about how many mar
Nataly [62]

The number of marbles in the bag illustrates probability

The conclusion about the number of marbles in the bag is that the bag can only contain one type of marble

<h3>The number of marbles in the bag?</h3>

The probabilities are given as:

P(Red) = 1

P(Green) = 1

For a distribution, the sum of all probabilities must equal to 1.

This means that:

P(Red) + P(Green) = 1

So, we have:

1 + 1 = 1

This gives

2 = 1

The above equation is false because 2 does not equal to 1.

So, the conclusion about the number of marbles in the bag is that the bag can only contain one type of marble i.e. either red marbles are in the bag or blue marbles are in the bag

A nice riddle, mathematical riddle.

Assuming a turtle winning means the declared winner is the weaker one actually won over the stronger one.  In this context, the turtle winner is the one who has a lesser number of favourable votes.

The given rules for the points are as follows:
1. Point for the first choice must be greater than or equal to that of the second choice.
2. All points must be positive whole numbers.

Let's suppose we have Henry against Tim.
Henry is favourite of the voters and is the leading candidate, according to popular polls.
Tim is an excellent manipulator, sly, and everybody knows this.

On polling day, the vote count came out as follows (in point counts)

Henry      Tim
2              1
2              1
2              1
2              1
2              1
2              1
10            1  (Henry's own vote)
1          100  (Tim's own vote)
------------------
17        107  TOTAL POINTS

So Tim the turtle was declared winner of the race, and since everything was according to rule, even a recount of the votes did not change the results.

Be aware, voting by districts (instead of popular votes) also exhibits a similar problem.

What is the perimeter of rhombus LMNO?
kicyunya [14]

If you see that 3x-3 and set it equal to x+7 then you will get this,

3x-3=x+7


Now solve for X. You will get 5.

Then you plug five in and get 12 For both sides and then multiply 12 by 4 and get 48.

You answer is 48.

Hope this helps you.
