I don't see a drawing of the quadrilaterals, so I don't know what the perimeter of quadrilateral P is. But whatever the perimeter of P is, Q will be 1/3 of that. Perimeter is a length, so even though it may pertain to a 2-dimensional object, it is still a 1-dimensional, linear measure. When two objects are similar (same shape, but scaled up or down by a scale factor), all corresponding linear measures have the same scale factor.
If you were asked about area or volume, that would be a different matter. In the case of area, you would square the scale factor, and in the case of volume, you would cube the scale factor.
Answer:
3 weeks: 21.5 inches
w weeks: 20+0.5w inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation: 20+0.5w.
20 was when it was first planted and 0.5 is the amount it grows per week.
Answer:
B. AA similarity postulate
3c/5-1/2=-31/2 Add 1/2 both sides
+1/2 +1/2
3c/5=-30/2 Then simplify the fraction
(5)3c/5=-15(5) Multiply 5 both sides
3c=75 Finally, divide by 3 both sides
c=25
So the answer to your question is E.
