Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
There are many ways to approach this problem. I like a method that uses the least amount of computation. We could figure how much Wendy makes on a bag of chips, the additional amount Wendy wants to make, then divide the latter by the former to find the number of additional bags to sell.
We could use a proportion to figure the number of bags corresponding to $126 in earnings, then subtract the 72 bags already sold. Essentially, we will do this, but without the intermediate numbers.
__
The additional fraction of 72 bags will be ...
(126/108) -1 = 18/108 = 1/6
Then Wendy must sell an additional ...
(1/6)×(72 bags) = 12 bags
to increase her earnings to $126.
Answer:
c 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
You are incorrect.
We are going from ABCDEFGH to A'B'C'D'E'F'G'H'. We are going from the large octagon to the small octagon. The scale factor of a dilation is the number you multiply the original lengths to get the lengths of the dilation.

Look at point (6, 0) which becomes (3, 0) in the dilation.
The distance from the origin to (6, 0) is 6 units.
The distance from the origin to (3, 0) is 3 units.
scale factor = dilated/original = 3/6 = 1/2
The scale factor of the dilation is 1/2.
Also look at segment AB whose length is 4. The length of segment A'B' is 2.
scale factor = dilated/original = 2/4 = 1/2
