Considering the area of the right triangle, it is found that Salome used a scale factor of 1/2 to go from triangle R to triangle T.
<h3>What is the area of a right triangle?</h3>
The area of a right triangle is given by half the multiplication of the lengths of it's sides.
In this figure, we have that the sides have lengths of 4 and 5 units, hence the area is given by:
A = 0.5 x 4 x 5 = 10 square units.
The area is one fourth of the area of triangle R. Since we are dealing with an area, that works in squared units, the scale factor is given by:
S = sqrt(1/4) = 1/2.
Hence Salome used a scale factor of 1/2 to go from triangle R to triangle T.

Answer: yes
Step-by-step explanation:
let's firstly convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction and then take it from there, keeping in mind that the whole is "x".
![\stackrel{mixed}{5\frac{5}{6}}\implies \cfrac{5\cdot 6+5}{6}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{35}{6}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{7}{3}x~~ = ~~5\frac{5}{6}\implies \cfrac{7}{3}x~~ = ~~\cfrac{35}{6}\implies 42x=105\implies x=\cfrac{105}{42} \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{21\cdot 5}{21\cdot 2}\implies x=\cfrac{21}{21}\cdot \cfrac{5}{2}\implies x=1\cdot \cfrac{5}{2}\implies x=2\frac{1}{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cstackrel%7Bmixed%7D%7B5%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B6%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B5%5Ccdot%206%2B5%7D%7B6%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7Bimproper%7D%7B%5Ccfrac%7B35%7D%7B6%7D%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%20~%5Cdotfill%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Ccfrac%7B7%7D%7B3%7Dx~~%20%3D%20~~5%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B6%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B7%7D%7B3%7Dx~~%20%3D%20~~%5Ccfrac%7B35%7D%7B6%7D%5Cimplies%2042x%3D105%5Cimplies%20x%3D%5Ccfrac%7B105%7D%7B42%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20x%3D%5Ccfrac%7B21%5Ccdot%205%7D%7B21%5Ccdot%202%7D%5Cimplies%20x%3D%5Ccfrac%7B21%7D%7B21%7D%5Ccdot%20%5Ccfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%5Cimplies%20x%3D1%5Ccdot%20%5Ccfrac%7B5%7D%7B2%7D%5Cimplies%20x%3D2%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D)
