Answer: Scale Factor = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The top side of the blue triangle is equal to 2 and the top side of the red triangle is equal to 6. Therefore you hav to divide 6 by 2 to give you the scale factor which is 3. (Sorry I do not know if zoom factor is the same as scale factor)
1st piece = x
2nd piece = x+2
3rd piece = x+2+3 = x+5
37 = x +x+2 + x+5 =
37 = 3x+7
30=3x
x = 30/3 = 10
1st piece = 10 inches
2nd piece = 10+2 = 12 inches
3rd piece = 10+5 = 15 inches
Answer:
If you want to know what b is then it is 16
Step-by-step explanation:
38 + b = 54
54- 38 = 16
38 + 16= 54
Answer:
D: 2/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Usually when we talk about a point partitioning a segment, we are interested in the ratio of the first segment to the second:
BC : CD = 2 : 2 = 1 : 1
Since this is not an answer choice, we need to "reverse engineer" the answer list to see if we can find an answer that corresponds to a reasonable interpretation of the question.
__
None of the segments is 3 units long, so neither of answer choices A or B makes any sense.
While segment BD is 4 units long, there is no segment that is 1 unit long, so answer choice C makes no sense, either.
There are segments that are 2 units long and a segment that is 4 units long, so if we interpret the question to be "what is the ratio of BC to BD?" then answer choice D is appropriate.
Answer:
The first number lets say is x
the second is y so
y=1/2x+8
x+1/2x+8=58
1 1/2x=50
x= 33 1/3
Hope This Helps!!!
