2.4/0.3=8
0.3x8=2.4
The scale factor is 8.
Separate it into two different shapes
Dfggyiopoigsaqwetyyggfffffff
so for A it is 16 times as large because the area is 3*3 which is 9 but since it is a triangle the area is halved and is 4.5 and divide 72 by 4.5 which gives us 16
then for b I believe that the scale factor is 4
and for C it is asking for the bottom side of the scaled copy not of triangle A and 4*3=12 so the bottom is 12
ok now its complete =)
Answer:
The number is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = number
2x+16 = 40
Subtract 16 from each side
2x+16-16 =40-16
2x = 24
Divide by 2
2x/2 =24/2
x = 12
