How do i find the scale factor?

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.

this formula, i represents the _____ of the loan. a. annual interest rate b. interest rate per period c. initial amount d. incid
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

b. interest rate per period

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

Annual interest rate is APR or (r)

Po is initial amount

n is number of periods

t is time in years

A is the amount after t years

so,

i is the interest rate per period

Hence ,

answer is

i is the interest rate per period

A = 1/2f(s + z) for s<br><br> Solve the following formula for the specified variable
Marat540 [252]

Step-by-step explanation:

\huge{\mathtt{\red{\underbrace{\overbrace{\pink{\boxed{\boxed{\blue{answer}}}}}}}}}

It is a little unclear when you state the problem what exactly is going on with that fraction. This is a common issue when you try to type up equations. On the right side, you have a fraction bar and then a bunch of stuff after it. We need to clear up what is supposed to be in the numerator and what is supposed to stay in the denominator. This is important not just for typing up questions on the internet to get help but in using your calculator as well. If what the equation means is that both "f" and "q+z" are in the denominator, but then on your calculator you type something 1 / 2 * f * ( q + z ), most calculators (e.g. TI 83/84 and almost any basic or scientific model) will interpret that as meaning only the 2 is on the bottom and the rest is on top.

If you meant the f and the q+z are on top, then Steve's answer is good.

If you meant the f and the q+z are supposed to be on the bottom, then we have a little bit different process.

First, write down the operations that are happening to q, and in what order they happen from inside out, that is, according to the regular PEMDAS rule:

1. z is added

2. 2f is multiplied

3. The result is divided into 1 (as opposed to being divided by 1).

So, to solve for q, we "invert" the order of operations and do the inverse operation of our 3 steps, and also in reverse order.

1. To get the big thing out of the denominator (Step 3), we will multiply both sides by 2f(q+z). Now we have:

C*2f(q+z) = 1, or as we normally write it,

2Cf(q+z) = 1

2. Now we have to adjust our steps just a little bit because we have the *C part too. So we will change Step 2 above to "2Cf is multiplied." We invert that by dividing, so we have:

q+z = 1/[2Cf]. Notice how I put brackets around the entire denominator so it's clear!

3. Finally to invert Step 1 we subtract z:

q = 1/[2Cf] - z

(PLEASE HELP/NO SPAM) Which equation shows the function y=2^x translated 4 units left and 2 units down?
lianna [129]

Answer:

The answer is (h).

Step-by-step explanation:

When y = 2^x is shifted 4 units left, the x shifts 4 units to the left and x becomes (x+4). When the graph is shifted to units down, y has to be subtracted by 2.

The function becomes

y = 2^(x+4) -2.

Finally, you shift -2 to the same side as y.

This becomes

y+2 = 2^(x+4) which is (h)

Hi, the answer is K but can anyone show why
dlinn [17]

Let's do 51 and 52.

51. The contrapositive has the same truth value as the original statement. That's opposed to the converse, which may or may not be true independent of the original statement.

The contrapositive of IF P THEN Q is IF not Q THEN not P.  They're equivalent.  Here that's If the cat is not female then it is not tricolor.

Answer: C

52.  

(x^3)^{(4-b^2)}=1

x^{3(4-b^2)} = 1

For the statement to be true, the exponent must be zero:

3(4-b^2) = 0

b^2 = 4

b = \pm 2

Both positive 2 and negative 2 have a square of 4.

Answer: K

By the way, usually we assume 0^0=1 so the restriction that x \ne 0 isn't really necessary.  Think of the definition of a polynomial or the binomial expansion:

\displaystyle f(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n a_k x^k

\displaystyle(x+y)^n=\sum_{k=0}^n {n \choose k} x^{k}y^{n-k}

For these common equalities to work when x=0 we need to define 0^0=1
