Let x equal the number of students in the band
12/x=0.24
12=0.24x
x=12/0.24
x=50
There are 50 students in the Jazz band

Figure a is dilated by a scale factor of 1/2 to form figure b. What is the length of x?

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

The correct option is 3. The value of x is 8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Figure A is dilated by a scale factor of 1/2 to form Figure B. It means both figure are similar and corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional.

$\text{scale factor}=\frac{\text{Side of image}}{\text{Side of preimage}}$

$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{x}{16}$

Multiply both sides by 16.

$\frac{16}{2}=x$

$8=x$

Since scale factor is 1/2, so we can directly say that the side length of image is half of the corresponding side of preimage.

The length of x is 8 inches. Therefore the correct option is 3.
