Suppose you have two similar figures , one larger than the other. The scale factor is the ratio of the length of a side of one figure to the length of the corresponding side of the other figure

Well...

generally to find scale factor you need to find how much larger or smaller the new image compared to the original. If it is larger it is represented as a ratio (example 1:2), if it is smaller it is represented as a fraction (example 1/2).

An example of finding scale factor would be a square with all the side lengths being 4cm (as the original) and the new square having all side lengths of 8 cm.

The scale factor would be 1 : 2 because the new image is 2 times the size of the original.

A firm has a fixed cost of $500 in its first year of operation. When the firm produces 100 units of output, its total costs are
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

option (a) $250

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Fixed cost = $500

For 100 units produced Total cost = $3,500

For 101 units produced, Total cost = $3,750

Now,

Marginal cost is calculated as:

Marginal cost = \frac{\textup{Total change in cost of producing more goods}}{\textup{Total change in produced goods}}

thus,

Marginal cost = \frac{\textup{Total cost of 101 units - Total cost of 100 units}}{\textup{101-100}}

or

Marginal cost = \frac{\textup{3,750-3,500}}{\textup{1}}

or

Marginal cost = $250

Hence,

The correct answer is option (a) $250

How do i solve this​
Sophie [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

You're given that ΔUVW is similar to ΔYZW.  The tricky part is identifying which sides in ΔUVW correspond to which sides in ΔYZW.

The triangles share point W, so visually rotate one triangle around W until the two triangles align.  That way, you can see that UW and ZW correspond to each other, and VW and YW correspond to each other.

Now you can find the scale:

VW / YW = 5/12

And you can write a proportion to find x:

UW / ZW = VW / YW

x / 64 = 5 / 12

x = 26 ⅔

*PLS HELP!!* {The Picture Is In The Attachment}​
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles add up to 180

∠1 + 50 = 180

∠1 = 180 - 50

∠1 = 130

∠3 +50 = 180   {Supplementary}

∠3 = 180 - 50

∠3 =130

⇒∠1 = ∠3 = 130
