Answer: Multiplying the number by 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Jay took a number, n, and increased it by 25%. The value gotten will be:

= n + (25% × n)

= n + (0.25 × n)

= n + 0.25n

= 1.25n

After that, Then, he doubled the resulting product. The value now gotten will be:

= 2 × 1.25n

= 2.50n

Therefore, the equivalent will be multiplying the number by 2.5. This will be:

= n × 2.5

= 2.5n

Therefore, it's thesame with the value gotten.

The correct option is D.

Mr. Richard owns an orchard that has a rectagular fence . The orchard is 36 yards long and 18 yards wide . if he walks across th
Sergio [31]

Answer:

40.2 Yards

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the diagonal length of the orchard, we need to use the Pythagorean Theorem. The formula of the Pythagorean Theorem is:

c²= a² + b²

a = 36 Yards

b = 18 Yards

Now let's plug in our values to the formula.

c² = a² + b²

c² = 36² + 18²

c² = 1296 + 324

c² = 1620

Now to find the value of c we need to get the square root of both sides.

\sqrt{c^{2}}=\sqrt{1620}

c = 40.2

So the diagonal length of Mr. Richard's orchard is 40.2 Yards.

(05.08A)Triangle ABC is transformed to similar triangle A′B′C′ below:
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

1st option is correct i.e., 1 over 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Triangle ABC transformed to Triangle A'B'C'.

Coordinated of Triangle ABC are A(2,6) , B(2,4) and C(4,4)

Coordinated of Triangle A'B'C' are A'(1,3), B'(1,2) and C'(2,2)

Scale factor of Dilation is the no. of times coordinates of vertices of a figure increase or decrease.i.e.,

if A(a,b) ⇒ A'(c,d)

where, a.k=c & b.k=d then k is scale factor of dilation.

Value of k is same for all vertices.

For coordinates of A & A' ,we have 2.k=1\implies k=\frac{1}{2} \:\: and \:\: 6.k=3\implies k=\frac{1}{2}

For coordinates of B & B' ,we have 2.k=1\implies k=\frac{1}{2} \:\: and \:\: 4.k=2\implies k=\frac{1}{2}

For coordinates of C & C' ,we have 4.k=2\implies k=\frac{1}{2} \:\: and \:\: 4.k=2\implies k=\frac{1}{2}

Therefore, the scale factor of dilation is \:\frac{1}{2}\:  since in all cases k=\frac{1}{2}

1st option is correct i.e., 1 over 2
