3/4 *7
or
0.75*7
The answer is 5.25
Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
For polygon PQRST to be considered a scaled copy of polygon ABCDE, it means every segments of polygon ABCDE were increased proportionally by a scale factor.
The segments in polygon PQRST were not gotten using the same scale factor, hence, it is not a scaled copy of the original polygon, ABCDE.
Segment CD = 2 units, it corresponds to segment RS = 4 units. Scale factor = RS/CD = 4/2 = 2
Segment BC = 1 unit, it corresponds to segment QR = 1 unit. Scale factor = QR/BC = 1/1 = 1 units.
Varying scale factor shows polygon PQRST is not a scaled copy of polygon ABCDE.
Answer:
When you use the distributive property, you multiply the two numbers together, just like simplifying any product. You will also see another example where the expression in parentheses is subtraction, rather than addition. You will need to be careful to change the sign of your product.

Answer:
20,365.7 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to know how to convert yards to miles, as the question is in miles. We know that 1 mile is equivalent to 1760 yards. So we have:
1 mi = 1760 yards
If we multiply both sides by 81:
81 mi = 142,560 yards
And we know that the sprinter needs 8 second to run 56 yards:
8 s = 56 yards
If we divide both sides by 56 we get the time he needs for 1 yard:
8/56 s = 56/56 yards
1/7 s = 1 yard
So, takes him 1/7 seconds to run one yard. At this rate he runs 142,560 yards in:
(1/7) * 142,560 = 20,365.7
So, he needs 20,365.7 seconds to run 81 miles (142,560 yards)
