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 chemical company makes two brands of antifreeze. The first brand is 65% pure antifreeze, and the second brand is 90% pure anti
Murrr4er [49]

With amounts measured in gallons, let

x = amount of 65% antifreeze

y = amount of 90% antifreeze

1 gal of the 65% brand contains 0.65 gal of pure antifreeze; x gal would contain 0.65x gal. Similarly, y gal of the 90% brand contains 0.90y gal of pure antifreeze.

To obtain 120 gal of 80% antifreeze solution (which contains 0.80•120 = 96 gal of pure antifreeze), we must have

x + y = 120 … … … … … [total volume of antifreeze solution]

0.65x + 0.90y = 96 … [total volume of pure antifreeze]

Solve the first equation for y :

y = 120 - x

Substitute this into the second equation and solve for x :

0.65x + 0.90 (120 - x) = 96

0.65x + 108 - 0.90x = 96

0.25x = 12

x = 48

Solve for y :

y = 120 - 48

y = 72

F the range of the function f(x) = 7x – 2.7 is {14.1, 30.9, 41.4, 58.9, 68}, what is its domain?
grigory [225]
You need to solve  5 equations  
1. 7x - 2.1 = 14.1
2. 7x - 2.1 = 30.9  and so on


1. 7x - 2.1 = 14.1
7x = 16.2
x = 2.314     so first number in the domain is  2.314

You can calculate the other 4 in the same way
