Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set Huilan's age to h and Thomas's age to t.

Since Huilan is 13 years younger than Thomas, we can write:

h = t - 13

The sum of both their ages is 41, so let's combine the variables h and t together.

h + t = 41

We said that h = t - 13, so substitute this value into the equation.

(t - 13) + t = 41

Combine like terms.

2t - 13 = 41

Add 13 to both sides of the equation.

2t = 54

Divide both sides of the equation by 2.

t = 27

Thomas's age is 27 years old.

Find the scale factor of the smaller figure to the larger figure

guapka [62]

Answer:

#9: 1.2

#10: 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the scale factor of the smaller figure to the larger figure, we're going to be dividing the measurements of corresponding edges.

$\frac{larger figure}{smaller figure}$

If you wanted to find the scale factor of the larger figure to the smaller figure, you'd do: $\frac{smaller figure}{larger figure}$

Question #9:

Left edges: $\frac{larger figure}{smaller figure}$ ⇒ $\frac{24}{20}$ = 1.2

Bottom edges: $\frac{larger figure}{smaller figure}$ ⇒ $\frac{30}{25}$ = 1.2

(You should get the same number as long as the figures are similar.)

Question #10:

Bottom edges: $\frac{larger figure}{smaller figure}$ ⇒ $\frac{30}{24}$ = 1.25

(There are no corresponding edges with measurements that we can compare.)

~Hope this helps!~
