Answer:
Polygon B is similar to Polygon A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Polygon B has a <em>scale factor</em> of 2, because Polygon B looks identical to A, except the measurements are twice as large.
Which one will we start with? I'll explain 21. multiply it out and the clean it up. you should end up with 140=A if I'm correct.
2(y-4)+5=3(y+2)
multiply the first bracket by 2
(2)(y)=2y
(2)(-4)=-8
multiply the second bracket by 3
(3)(y)=3y
(3)(2)=6
2y-8+5=3y+6
2y-3=3y+6
move 3y to the other side
sign changes from +3y to -3y
2y-3y-3=3y-3y+6
-y-3=6
move -3 to the other side
-y-3+3=6+3
-y=9
multiply both sides by -1 to get +y
(-1)(-y)=9(-1)
Answer:
y=-9
