Answer:

6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor can be obtained by simply finding the ratio of the lenght of the side of one shape to the length of the same side of the other shape.

Thus, we can obtain the scale factor that will take us from △ABC to △MNO as illustrated below:

Original Length BC = 15 in

New Length NO = 18 in

Scale factor =?

Scale factor = New lenght NO / Original length BC

Scale factor = 18 / 15

Scale factor = 6/5

Therefore, the scale factor that will take us from △ABC to △MNO is 6/5.

Follow the process of completing the square to solve x^2 - 10x + 8 = 0. What is the value of the constant that will be isolated

My name is Ann [436]

To solve using completing square method we proceed as follows:
x^2-10x+8=0
x^2-10x=-8
but
c=(b/2)^2
c=(10/2)^2=25
thus we can add this in our expression to get
x^2-10x+25=8+25
factorizing the LHS we get:
(x-5)(x-5)=33
(x-5)^2=33
getting the square roots of both sides we have:
x-5=+/-√33
x=5+/-√33

kenny6666 [7]

First of all, it is a ratio. I know that for a fact, but not very sure about the candy part. What I think it means is that they are comparing two types of candy.
