You must divide the larger by the smaller... That will give you the scale factor.
For example: Rectangles 10 x 20 and 5 x 10
the scale factor us 10/5 = 20/10 = 2
Hope this helps.
Answer:
2412 mm³
Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure attached, the composite figure is shown.
Dimension of top rectangular prism:
Volume of top rectangular prism: length*width*height = 13*12*12 = 1872 mm³
Dimension of bottom rectangular prism:
Volume of bottom rectangular prism: length*width*height = 15*12*3 = 540 mm³
Volume of the composite figure: 1872 + 540 = 2412 mm³
To solve this equation from the information given above, I ordered it 5x+12=8x. To solve, I subtracted 5x from each side, canceling the 5x to your left, leaving only the number 12. 8x minus 5x equals 3x. Take 3x and divide on both sides. 3x/3x cancels the 3, leaving 12/3 equals 4. Finally, x equals 4.
