Answer:

Scale factor  = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using similar triangles

AT/AG = AB/AC

9/3 = x+10/3x-10

Cross multiply

3(x+10) = 9(3x-10)

Expand

3x+30 = 27x-90

3x-27x = -90 - 30

-24x = -120

x = 120/24

x = 5

For the larger triangle;

AC = 3x-10

AC = 3(5)-10

AC =15-10

AC = 5

AB = x+10

AB = 5+10

AB = 15

For the scale factor;

Since AT/AG = AB/AC

9/15 = 3/5

3*3/5*3 =3/5

Since the numerator and denominator of the larger triangle is multiplies by the same factor i.3 3. Hence the scale factor is 3

<h3>Answer: Choice C) 421.9</h3>

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

Explanation:

You're on the right track. You wrote down the proper expression to get the final answer, assuming you meant to write 75/4 as the third term inside the parenthesis. This works because each time you cut the side length in half to get each smaller triangle's side. The 3 is because there are 3 sides for each of the triangles. Much of this I have a feeling you already know as you wrote down the expression on the page, though I'm not 100% sure of your mindset. Computing this expression leads to 421.875 which rounds to 421.9

note: an alternative is to write 3*75 + 3*75/2 + 3*75/4 + 3*75/8, though that is more work. It's better to have that 3 factored out.
