You divided in the wrong order. The resulting image always goes first then the preimage is afterward.
scale factor = (new)/(old) = 10/8 = 1.25
<h3>Answer is choice B</h3>
The scale factor is larger than 1, so this means we have an enlargement going on.
Answer:
6.75 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
6(8/9)
=6.75
Answer: x=11
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 5.4
Step-by-step explanation:
(This question has already been answered, but both of the incorrect ones were deleted, so for future reference...)
Fig A is a scale image of Fig D. These two quadrilaterals are similar, and thus, the side lengths of corresponding sides are proportional. Set the proportion x/3 = 7.2/4 (you could alternatively write it as x/7.2 = 3/4 but for the simplicity's sake, and assuming anyone who has this problem would already know how to solve proportions like these...)
7.2/4 = 1.8
so
x/3 = 1.8
now multiply both sides by 3 to get x = 5.4
