Answer:

%33.33

Step-by-step explanation:

start by converting the 1.5 lbs into oz. 16 oz go into one pound.

since .5 is equivalent to one half, divide 16 in two to get 8 and then add 8 to 16.

You should get that 1.5 lbs = 24 oz

now divide 24 by 8

24/8 = 3

this shows that 8 goes into 24 three times. If three eights go into 24, then three ones go into 3. You can use this information to make a simplified fraction which is easy to convert over to a percent.

1/3

an last but not least, convert it to a percent

1/3 = %33.33

i hope this helped! i'm bad at explaining things so sorry if it's hard to understand lol

Answer:

A.The scale factor is 0.25 ⇒ True

B.The scale factor is 4 ⇒ False

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached figure.

A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size.

A dilation that creates a smaller image is called a reduction.

As Shown, two right triangles, The first triangle is dilated to form the second triangle.

We can deduce that the second image is a smaller than the first triangle.

The hypotenuse of the first triangle = 4.4

The hypotenuse of the second triangle = 1.1

So, the scale factor = 1.1/4.4 = 11/44 = 1/4 = 0.25

We will check the options:

A.The scale factor is 0.25 ⇒ True

B.The scale factor is 4 ⇒ False

Answer: Option a.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The sequence shown in the problem is a Geometric sequence, because it has a common ratio. This means that when you multiply one of those numbers by the common ratio, you obtain the next number.

2. Then, you can calculate the common ratio as following:

$r=\frac{108}{-324}=-\frac{1}{3}$
