Answer:

ST is 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the similarity formla

RL/LS  = LM/ST

3/12 = 7/x+2

3(x+2)=84

x +2= 84/3

x+2 =  28

x= 28-2

x = 26

ST = x+2

ST = 26+2

ST = 28

Hence the length of ST is 28

Polygon Y is a scaled copy of Polygon X using a scale factor of \dfrac13 3 1 ​ start fraction, 1, divided by, 3, end fraction. P
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Polygon Y's area is one ninth (1/9) of Polygon X's area

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

In this problem

Let

z-----> the scale factor

a-----> Polygon Y's area

b----> Polygon X's area

z^{2}=\frac{a}{b}

we have

z=\frac{1}{3}

substitute

(\frac{1}{3})^{2}=\frac{a}{b}

\frac{1}{9}=\frac{a}{b}

a=\frac{1}{9}b

therefore

Polygon Y's area is one ninth (1/9) of Polygon X's area

Solve the proportion. 2x/5 = 9/15
Over [174]

x = 3/2

Getting x on one side of the equation:

(2/5)x = 9/15

x = (9/15)(5/2)

x = 9/6

x = 3/2
