<h3>Answer: Choice C) 2</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

The vertical side of the blue triangle is PR = 2

The corresponding vertical side of the green triangle is P'R' = 4

The scale factor is the ratio of those two corresponding sides. So we divide the two side lengths.

scale factor = (P'R')/(PR) = (4)/(2) = 2

---------------------

We could also say:

scale factor = (R'Q')/(RQ) = (6)/(3) = 2

Or you could find the lengths of PQ and P'Q' through the distance formula, or Pythagorean theorem, and apply the same idea as shown above.

One of the zookeepers solved to find Bernard’s speed when he is healthy using the equation:
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Both the zoo-keepers are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first zoo keeper uses the equation:

x - 41.5 = 13.5

⇒ x = 13.5 + 14. 5 = 55

Now, the second zoo- keeper uses the equation:

41.5 + 13.5 = x

⇒ x = 55

Both use x = 55.

Answer:

2 and - \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

3y = 6x + 9 ( divide all terms by 3 )

y = 2x + 3 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 2

(i)

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

the slope of line t is 2

(ii)

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{2}, thus

the slope of line r is - \frac{1}{2}

Given that F( x ) = x 2 + 2, evaluate F(1) + F(5).
stealth61 [152]

Hi there! :)

Answer:

\huge\boxed{f(1) + f(5) = 30}

Given:

f(x) = x^{2} + 2

Evaluate f(1) + f(5)

Solve for each:

f(1) = (1)^{2} +  2 = 3

f(5) = (5)^{2} + 2 = 27

27 + 3 = 30
