Answer:
=2.4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
In similar plane figures, the ratio of corresponding sides is a constant.
This constant is the linear scale factor.
In the provided example, 1.2cm corresponds to 0.96 while 3.0 corresponds to x
Thus, 1.2 cm/0.96 cm=3.0 cm/x
x=(3.0 cm×0.96 cm)/1.2 cm
=2.4 cm.
Answer:
8 1/4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
If the answer were closer to 8 1/2 inches then when measuring to the nearest quarter inch, the answer would have been 8 1/2. Instead the answer was 8 1/4 because the length was closer to 8 1/4 than it was to 8 1/2.
5x + 3 = 3x + 11
• first put all the x-values on one side and the rest on the other
Remember: when the number moves to the other side of the equal sign the sign (+ OR - switches. For ex: the 3 on the left becomes negative when moved to the right side of the equal sign)
5x - 3x = 11 - 3
• subtract left and right sides separately
2x = 8
• divide both sides by 2 to solve for x
2x/2 = 8/2
x = 4 (final answer)
