Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
From the diagram, figure B was enlarged to obtain figure A.
The two figures are therefore similar.
The corresponding sides are in the same proportion. That constant value of the proportion is called scale factor.
It is given by:
Figure B is the image of A
Therefore the scale factor is 2.5
divide both sides by 7 to get x alone
84/7 = 12
B.12
Sorry but I don’t understand that language... Just ask someone who knows answer... sorry...
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...
time = distance/speed
For a kayak speed of k miles per hour in still water, the speed upstream is (k-2) and the speed downstream is (k+2). Over the distances given, the times are the same, so we can write ...
10/(k-2) = 14/(k+2)
Multiplying by (k+2)(k-2) gives ...
10(k+2) = 14(k -2)
10k +20 = 14k -28 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
48 = 4k . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 28-10k
12 = k
Then the time for 28 miles downstream is ...
time = 28 / (12 +2) = 2 . . . . hours
It will take the person 2 hours to kayak 28 miles downstream.
