In the figure, ABC and DEF are similar. What's the scale factor from ABC to DEF?

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor of ABC to DEF is the number you need to multiply a corresponding side of ABC to get one of DBC. We are given the two triangles are similar, so we can say that sides AB and DE are proportional. We are looking for the number we need to multiply AB by to get DE. From this relation, we can get the equation:

AB * x = DE

where x is our scale factor. We can substitute in the values of AB and DE, and solve for x:

5x = 15

x = 3

Therefore, the scale factor is three. This means that you can multiply any side of ABC by 3 to get a side of DEF.

A radio station had 100 tickets to a concert. They gave away 3thimes as many tickets to listeners as to employees. How many tick
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

They gave away 75 tickets to the listeners and 25 to the employees.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you think about it the function for this would be f(x)=3x+x=100.

3x is the listeners while x is the employees. A simplified version of solving this is doing 100/4 and then 25 times 1 is 25, which is the number of tickets to emplyees.

If mJI = (3x+2)°, mHLK = (15x-36)°, and m∠HML = (8x-1)°, find mHLK
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

The value of mHLK will be "(204)°".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

mJI = (3x+2)°

mHLK = (15x-36)°

and,

m∠HML = (8x-1)°

then,

mHLK = ?

Now,

By using chord-chord formula of angle, we get

mHMK=\frac{1}{2}(mJL+mHLK)

On putting the values in the above formula, we get

⇒  (8x-1)=\frac{1}{2}(15x-36+3x+2)

On applying cross-multiplication, we get

⇒  2(8x-1)=18x-34

⇒  16x-2=18x-34

On subtracting "18x" from both sides, we get

⇒  16x-2-18x=18x-34-18x

⇒  -2x-2=-34

On adding "2" both sides, we get

⇒  -2x=-34+2

⇒  -2x=-32

⇒  x=\frac{32}{2}

⇒  x=16

On putting the value of "x" in mHLK = (15x-36)°, we get

⇒ (15x-36)° = (15×16-36)°

⇒                = (240-36)°

⇒                = (204)°

So that mHLK = (204)°
