Answer:
I am having a hard time reading the letters, so I hope this makes sense. I think that the numbers for the top triangles is given is 6 and 3. That means that the scale factor from the little to the big is 2 and from the big to the little is 1/2. It is the same for the bottom triangles.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the triangles are similar the scale factors will be the same for all three corresponding sides of the triangle. You find the two sides that are corresponding and ask yourself what do I have to multiple the side of of triangle to get the new triangle.
If one side is 3 and the other triangles side is 6. I am asking myself what do I have to multiple 3 by to get 6? 2. That is my scale factor.
3x = 6
x = 2
The scale factors are always reciprocals of each other. If I go the other direction I can write the equation
6x = 3 and when I divide both sides by 6, I get a scale factor of 1/2.
The bottom triangles:
2.5 x = 5
x = 2
and
5x = 2.5
x =1/2
Answer:
Jim's claim is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Total survey=100 people
Morning exercise=35 people
Afternoon exercise=45 people
Night exercise=20 people
Morning exercise : Total survey
=35 : 100
Afternoon exercise : Total survey
=45 : 100
Night exercise : Total survey
=20 : 100
Jim's claim is correct because in finding the ratio, one has to relate it with the total people involved in the survey.
Tara's claim however seems to relate one variable with two other variables
Example:
35 : 55
Morning exercise : (morning exercise + night exercise)
35 : (35+20)
35 : 55

Answer: 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The most you can divide by 15 and 65 to get a whole number would be 5
