A rectangular magazine cover is photocopied by using a scale factor of One-third. The length of the photocopy of the magazine co
seraphim [82]

Answer: "reduced by a factor of One-third."

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that the original magazine has a length L and a width W.

If it is photocopied using a scale factor of K, then the measures of the photocopy will be:

length = K*L

Width = K*W

In this case, the scale factor is K = 1/3, then the measures of the photocopy will be:

length = (1/3)*L = L/3

Width = (1/3)*W = W/3

For usual notation:

When k > 1, we have an enlargement by a factor k

when 0 < k < 1, we have a reduction by a factor k

in this case, k = 1/3, then:

We have a reduction by a factor of 1/3

The correct option is:

"reduced by a factor of One-third."

Mariana solved the equation below. Identify her ERROR and EXPLAIN what she did wrong. -3(2x-4)=-12 -6x-12=-12 -6x=0 x=0
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Her error was multiplying -3 and -4 which gives +12 but she wrote -12 instead

Step-by-step explanation:

Mariana workings:

-3(2x - 4) = -12

-6x - 12 = -12

Her error was multiplying -3 and -4 which gives +12 but she wrote -12 instead

-6x = 0

x=0

Correct workings:

-3(2x - 4) = -12

-6x + 12 = - 12

-6x = -12 - 12

-6x = -24

x = -24/-6

x = 4

enrollment in the ski/snowboard club increased by 30% this year. there are now 182 students in the club. how many students were
eduard
Enrolement increased by 30% that means last year=100%
incease of 30%=30+100=130% now

now=182

percent means parts out of 100 so
130%=130/100=13/10


182=13/10 of x (x represents the number last year)
of means multipy so
182=13/10 times x
multiply both sides by 10/13 to clear fraction
182 times 10/13=x=140



140 students last year
