Explain similar figures including explaining how to find the scale factor when given two similar figures and side lengths.

Answers

Answer 1
similar figures are two different figures of different sizes, but have the same shape
Answer 2
Suppose you have two similar figures , one larger than the other. The scale factor is the ratio of the length of a side of one figure to the length of the corresponding side of the other figure. Here, XYUV=123=4 . So, the scale factor is 4 .

A. a^2
B. a^4
C. a^12
D. a^32

Answers

Answer:

[tex]D. \ \boxed{a^{32}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex](a^{8})^{4}=a^{8\cdot4}=a^{32}[/tex]

because

[tex](a^{x})^{y}=a^{x\cdot y}[/tex]

When you have two exponents and you are multiplying you have to multiply the exponents so you have to:

8*4=32


Therefore the answer is D: a^32

A rectangular prism has a length of 8 inches and a width of 6 inches. The lateral area is 84 square inches. What is the height of the prism?

What is the height of the prism??

Answers

The answer would be 1.75 or 70

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangular prism has a length of 8 inches and a width of 6 inches. The lateral area is 84 square inches. What is the height of the prism?

Find the perimeter of the base.

P = 2l + 2w Perimeter of a rectangle

P = 2(8) + 2(6) Substitute: l = 8 and w = 6

P = 28

Use the formula for lateral area.

L = Ph

84 = (28)h Substitute: L = 84 and P = 28

h = 3 Solve for h.

The height of the prism is 3 inches.

Answer:

y^8 goes to the last one

y^6 goes to the third one

y^5 goes to the second one

then the last one go to the first one

Answer:

(y)^-2 = 1/y^2, (y^3)^2 = y^6, y^8 -:- y^3 = y^5, and y^4 x y^4 = y^8

Step-by-step explanation:

When you divide y^8 -:- y^3, you subtract ^8-^3 = ^5, so its y^8 -:- y^3 = y^5

When you multiply y^4 x y^4, you add ^4 + ^4 = ^8, so it is y^4 x y^4 = y^8

When you multiply (y^3)^2, you multiply ^3 x ^2 = ^6, so its (y^3)^2 = y^6

And when you have a negative exponent,(^-2) you have to make it positive, so it would be y^-2 = 1/y^2

What is the surface area of the following triangular prism?

a. 24 yd 2
b. 96 yd 2
c. 50 yd 2
d. 90 yd 2

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 96 yd 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First for the triangle bases, you multiply the 3 by 4 and divide by 2 to get one base which is 6, then double it to get the other base on the top to get a total of 12. Then you just find the area of the other sides of the prism by multiplying the lengths and widths.

5x7=35

4x7=28

3x7=21

then you add all of the total values together:

Answers

2.65x + 2.50 = y

step by step explanation:

2.65 is how much for each mile, and the variable, x, represents the number of miles of the trip. so, we would do 2.65x to find out how much money you have to pay for the amounts of mile.

next, you would have to add the initial fee, which is 2.50. so 2.65x+2.50.

lastly, y represents the total cost of the trip. so, 2.65x + 2.50 = y

Answer:

7.102347 times [tex]10^{6}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright.  This is an inanely large amount of words, as a drill for scientific notation.  The first step is, since the mystery book has 2,029,242 words, to turn this into a single digit multiplied by a power of ten - 2.029242 times [tex]10^{6}[/tex] (apologies for the weird font change in the middle).  The science fiction book is 3.5 times larger - multiply 2.029242 on a calculator (unless you really like suffering for some reason; then do it by hand) - it comes out as 7.102347.  Thus, the answer is 7.102347 times [tex]10^{6}[/tex].

Let x be the number.
"twelve decreased by twice a number" ---> 12 - 2x
"8 times the sum of number and 4" ---> 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8x + 32 (distributive property)
12 = 10x + 32 (add 2x to both sides)
-20 = 10x (subtract 32 from both sides)
x = -2 (divide both sides by 10)

Answer:

twelve decreased by twice a number > 12 - 2x

8 times the sum of number and 4 > 8 (x + 4)

12 - 2x = 8 (x + 4)  then 12 - 2x = 8x + 32 (distributive property)

12 = 10x + 32 (add 2x to both sides)

-20 = 10x (subtract 32 from both sides)

x = -2 (divide both sides by 10)
