Given ADEF: ARST, find the scale factor

Mathematics
2 answers:
Deffense [45]3 years ago

Answer:

the scale factor is 3/4

x = 16×3/4 = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

the only side length we have for both triangles is the short left side.

we see that we get ED from SR and need to transform 4 into 3. how do we do that ?

well,

4×f = 3

f = 3/4

that is the scaling factor, as all side lengths in EDF are created by multiplying the corresponding side in SRT by the same scaling factor (3/4).

therefore,

x = EF = ST×f = 16×3/4 = 4×3 = 12

Answer:

The scale factor is 4/3 and x is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Divide RS by DE

4 ÷ 3 = 4/3

→ Divide the answer by 16

16 ÷ 4/3 = 12

B.) Hibiscus Street 

The key thing to remember is the slope of the lines. The equation for a line in slope intercept form is
y = ax + b
where
a = slope
b = y intercept

So the equation for Oak Street is y = 2/3x - 7. So it's slope is 2/3. And any street that has the same slope will be given a tree name. And any street that's perpendicular will be given a flower name. You can determine is a line is perpendicular if it has a slope that's the negative reciprocal. So a street that's perpendicular to Oak street will have a slope of -3/2.

Now you've just been given the equation to a new street that's y = -3/2x - 2. Since the slope is -3/2 and Oak street has a slope of 2/3, the new street is perpendicular to Oak street. And given the naming scheme, that means that the new street will have the name of a flower. So let's look at the available street names and pick a flower.
<span>
A.) Weeping Willow Street
* Nope a Weeping Willow is a tree. So this name won't work.
 
B.) Hibiscus Street 
* Yes. A Hibiscus is a flower, so this name is suitable.

C.) Oak Street 
* Nope. Not only is this a tree instead of a flower, but there's already an Oak street. So bad choice.

D.) Panther Street
* Nope, this is an animal, not a flower. Bad choice.

how to factor -9z^2 + 10z - 1 = 0 it’s been a while since i’ve been in school and i can’t seem to remember how please help
vichka [17]

Answer:

z = 1/9   and    z = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-9 z^{2} + 10z - 1 = 0

(-9z+1)(z-1) = 0

You can check the answer using foil method

Then,

(-9z+1) = 0

-9z = -1

z = 1/9

(z-1) = 0

z = 1

Answers:

z = 1/9

z = 1
