Let the number be Y .
Y is seven
less than 5 times another (let that other be X)
Y=7-5X
sum of both Y and X minus 4 gives one
Y+X-4=1
now solve both equations .
Some expressions are:
7 times 4 equals 28
20 plus 8 equals 28
10 plus 18 equals 28
25 plus 3 equals 28
Answer:
The best estimate of the area of the larger figure is 
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
<em>Find the scale factor</em>
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal to the scale factor
Let
z----> the scale factor
x-----> the corresponding side of the larger figure
y-----> the corresponding side of the smaller figure
so

we have


substitute
-----> the scale factor
step 2
<em>Find the area of the larger figure</em>
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared
Let
z----> the scale factor
x-----> the area of the larger figure
y-----> the area of the smaller figure
so

we have


substitute and solve for x
