Answer: Scale factor = 2

=====================================================

Explanation:

Pick on any pair of corresponding sides. I'll pick the right-most sides of each figure. For figure A, that would be the side of 40 units. Figure B has this corresponding side be 80 units long.

The scale factor is 80/40 = 2. This shows that figure B has sides 2 times longer compared to the corresponding sides on figure A.

So in short all you do is divide the corresponding side lengths. We divide in the format (figureB)/(figureA) because of the transition from A to B, and not the other way around.

Find the surface area of the pyramid. the surface area of the pyramid is __in squared.

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

$561.08in^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$S A = lw + l$ $\sqrt{(\frac{w}{2})^{2} + h^{2} } + w$ $\sqrt{(\frac{l}{2})^{2} + h^{2} }$

$SA = 14(14) + 14 \sqrt{(\frac{14}{2})^{2} + 11^{2} }+ 14 \sqrt{(\frac{14}{2})^{2} + 11^{2} } = 561.08in^{2}$

Jason is cutting a roll of sausage into pieces that are 1/2 inches thifk if the roll is 6 inchew long how many pieces of sausage

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

12 rolls

Step-by-step explanation:

Jason wants to cut roll into pieces that are each 1/2 inches thick. 1/2 is equal to 0.5, so thickness of each roll is 0.5 inches

Total length of the roll is 6 inches. We have to find how many small 0.5 inch rolls can he cut.

In simple words we can say that we have to find: how many 0.5 inches can be out from 6 inches. This type of problem is solved by division. Dividing 6 inches by 0.5 inches will give us: How many 0.5 inches can be cut out from 6 inches i.e. how many 0.5 inches roll can be made from 6 inches roll

6 divided by 0.5 is 12.

This means Jason can cut 12 rolls of sausages each with thickness of 0.5 inches from a roll of 6 inches.
