Since the 7 is in front of the parentheses you must multiply it by everything inside the parentheses. 7 times X is 7X and 7 times -2 is -14. Then you need to make the X be by itself on one side, to do that you have to add 14 to -14 to make it disappear, and also add 14 to the other side, to 28. Then you divide both sides by 7 to make X be by itself.
7(x-2)=28
7X-14=28
7x=42
X=6
7(x-2)=28
7X-14=28
7x=42
X=6
Given:
In the given figure, PS=x, RS=35, UV=20, VW=25 and TW=15
To find:
The scale factor from PQRS to TUVW.
Solution:
We have,
We know that the corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional. The scale factor is the ratio of one side of image and corresponding side of preimage.
The scale factor is:
Therefore, the scale factor from PQRS to TUVW is .
