How to find the scale factor of something

Mathematics
1 answer:
AysviL [449]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

To find the scale factor, locate two corresponding sides, one on each figure. Write the ratio of one length to the other to find the scale factor from one figure to the other. In this example, the scale factor from the blue figure to the red figure is 1.6 : 3.2, or 1 : 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

lidiya [134]
As it has a maximum value the coefficient of x^2 will be negative

The vertex will be at (-8,2)  so in vertex form it is

y = a(x + 8)^2 + 2
and as it passes through (-7,-1) we have:

-1  = a(-7+8)^2 + 2

-1 = a + 2  so a = -3

answer is  y = -3(x + 8)^2 + 2

in standard form this is y = -3x^2 -48x  - 190

A square fits exactly inside a circle with each of its vertices being on the circumference of the circle.
swat32

Answer:

The side of the square is 5.971 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If the square fits the circle exactly, then its diagonal is equal to the diameter of the circle. Since the side of the square has a length of x cm, then it's diagonal have the length of x\sqrt2 cm. Using the circle's area we can find the diagonal of the square, as shown below:

area = \pi*r^2\\56 = pi*r^2\\r^2 = \frac{56}{\pi}\\r = \sqrt{\frac{56}{\pi}}\\r = 4.222

Since the diameter of the circle is the same as the diagonal of the square, then:

x\sqrt{2} = 2*r \\x = \frac{2*r}{\sqrt{2}}\\x = \frac{2*4.222}{\sqrt{2}}\\x = 5.971

The side of the square is 5.971 cm
