Answer:

28.8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using Proportion

The ratio of one side of ΔABC to the corresponding side of similar ΔDEF is 3:5.

ΔABC/ΔDEF = 3/5

Hence,

The perimeter of ΔDEF is 48 inches.

Let the perimeter of ΔABC = x inches

3/5 = x/48

Cross Multiply

5x = 48 × 3

x = 48 × 3/5

x = 28.8 inches

The perimeter of ΔABC is 28.8 inches

inn [45]

Answer: 168 inches.

Explanation:

First thing you must always do when solving word problems is read closely, and take note of any number.

In this case, the first thing we must do is find the scale factor.

For this, we use one of the dimensions. We will use the width of the photo.

We have then:

k = 132/11

k = 12

Then, we look for the value of the height of the new photo. To do this, we multiply the scale factor by the original dimension.

We have then:

14k = 14 (12) = 168

Thus, 168 inches is your answer! :)

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

given that x and y are proportional, they can be expressed as y = rx, where r is the proportionality constant. Thus, we can solve for r by doing y/x in any given point.

\frac{8}{1.6} = \frac{15}{3}  = \frac{22}{4.4} = 5
