Scale factor is defined as a number which multiplies or scales some quantity.
The shape of the figure remains same, the image becomes larger or smaller.
If the scale factor is greater than one, then the image is enlarged.
If the scale factor is less than 1 but greater that 0, then the image becomes smaller.
In the above image, AD = 2 units.
It's corresponding side PS = 3 units
Similarly AB = 1 unit and PQ = 1.5 units
Hence , 1 * 1.5 = 1.5
2*1.5 = 3
Hence, the scale factor of the given image is 1.5 ... Answer
Blank 1: 3
Blank 2: 27
Blank 3: 21
you have to distribute the three to everything inside the parenthesis, and because it's directly in front of the parenthesis it's being multiplied.
3(x - 9) = 3x - 27
Now you need to isolate the y, in this e ample you need to add 6 to both sides
the final equation should be:
y = 3x - 21
Step-by-step explanation:
due to the laws of symmetry of the angles of 2 crossing lines (and parallel lines are simply repeating and mirroring these angles), both angles must be equal.
5x - 5 = 6x - 27
-5 = x - 27
x = 22
Answer : a
step by step explanation :
The lot costs 5000 dollars.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The cost of a House and the lot = $40,000.
Let us assume the cost of lot as 'x'
Given that, The cost of the house is 7 times as much as the lot.
Therefore, The cost of the house= 7x
The cost of both the house and the lot= x + 7x
$40,000 = x + 7x
40,000 = 8x
x = 40,000/8
x = 5,000
The lot costs $5000.
