K  - scale factor
a = 8 1/2
b = 11
a₁ = 1 7/10
b₁ = 2 1/5


k = \frac{a_1}{a}=\frac{b_1}b\\\\\\\frac{a_1}{a}=\dfrac{1 \frac{7}{10}}{8\frac12}=1 \frac{7}{10}:8\frac12=\frac{17}{10}:\frac{17}2=\frac{17}{10}\cdot\frac2{17}=\frac15\cdot\frac11=\frac15\\\\\\\frac{b_1}{b}=\dfrac{2 \frac{1}{5}}{11}=2\frac15:11=\frac{11}{5}\cdot\frac1{11}=\frac15\cdot\frac11=\frac15 \\\\\\\frac{a_1}{a}=\frac{b_1}b=\frac15\ \ \ \implies\ \ \ k=\frac15

Jelly ate 3 apples. This represents 50% of the bag of apples. How many apples were originally in the bag
rjkz [21]
<h3>Answer:  6 apples</h3>

x = number of apples originally

50% of x = 0.50*x = amount of apples eaten = 3

0.50x = 3

x = 3/0.50 ....... divide both sides by 0.50

x = 6

You can think of 50% as 1/2. If 3 apples represent half the bag, then the full bag is 6 apples. So half of 6 is 3.

If the population of a state was 4702644 how many representatives should that state have
WARRIOR [948]
There is not an exact way to answer that question. The number of representatives each state has is determined by the population. However, the total number of house representatives has been capped at 435 since 1913. Currently, the ratio of constituents to representatives is 700,000 to 1. So if you divide the total population by 700,000 you will have an approximation of the number of representatives.

The price has changed from 125$ to 75$. By how much percent did it change
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

-40 %

Step-by-step explanation:

((y2 - y1) / y1)*100 = your percentage change

(where y1=start value and y2=end value)

((75 - 125) / 125) * 100 = -40 %

The percentage change from 125 to 75 is -40 %

The function g(x) = –3x2 – 36x – 60 written in vertex form is g(x) = –3(x + 6)2 + 48. Which is one of the transformations applie
navik [9.2K]
The vertex form of the function gives the vertex as (-6,48). The vertex of f(x)=x^2 is (0,0) so from this information, the vertex is moved LEFT 6 and UP 48. This cancels out two options. The coefficient -3 tells us that the graph is flipped or reflected over the x-axis (negative sign flips graph) and that all y-values will be 3 times as large. Larger y-values for the same x inputs makes the graph narrower.
