3/4...........................................................................
Divide the new length M'P' over the old one MP
(M'P')/(MP) = 4/10 = 0.4
The scale factor is 0.4
Because the scale factor is less than 1, it indicates the image (aka new figure) is smaller than the preimage (aka original figure). Basically the figure has been scaled down.
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Because x is on a triangle with a steeper angle, it is not going to extend the line as as much as the line that y is on.
It's closer to 4.97 because if you round to the nearest tenths, you will get 4.97.
