Question

i need some help please

Answer 1

@dude

Answer 2

Any idea?

Answer 3

i think it might be C

Answer 4

Believe you're right

Answer 5

@dude ?

Answer 6

@Vocaloid welcome back

Answer 7

@princeevee do you have any idea about this ?

Answer 8

i'm thinking it's C.

Answer 9

that's what i think is the closest to 3/2

Answer 10

so my idea that than the top has a width of 3 and length of 8 and similarity ratio of 3/2
so the bottom has width 3*3/2 = ? and length of 8*3/2 = ?

Answer 11

@Vocaloid

Answer 12

24/3 is still 8

Answer 13

exactly

Answer 14

but 16 is a multiple of 8

Answer 15

how you get this 24/3 ?

Answer 16

8*3/2 is 24/2 not 24/3

Answer 17

8*3/2 = ?

Answer 18

@princeevee do you understand it ? multiply 8*3 and divide by 2

Answer 19

and the width the same 3*3/2 = ?

Answer 20

@princeevee so in this way what choice is right ?

Answer 21

12

Answer 22

A?

Answer 23

yes the bottom length

Answer 24

yes exactly A .

Answer 25

do you understand it now ?

Answer 26

hope helped

good luck

bye bye

Answer 27

alright, thanks..

Answer 28

@Vocaloid want to help me a bit more?

Answer 29

if you look at the diagram MP and SV are corresponding right?

so it either has to be MP/SV or SV/MP depending on which one gives you an answer choice

Answer 30

1.3 seems close, i guess

Answer 31

good, 1.3

Answer 32

the smaller width is 2

it says the scale factor is 3/4

so 2 = 3/4 * large width, solve for large width

Answer 33

so, lets see...

Answer 34

large width is being multiplied by 3/4 right? so you just need to divide both sides by 3/4 to isolate what large width is

Answer 35

so 5/3/4?

Answer 36

if you want to do the length instead that's fine

5/(3/4) = ?

Answer 37

remember your rules for dividing fractions, flip the fraction over and change the sign to a multiplication sign

5/(3/4) = 5 * (4/3) = ?

Answer 38

rules for multiplying fraction: multiply the numerators first

5 * 4

then divide by the denominator 3

20/3 or in other words, 6 2/3

Answer 39

making the first option the only viable choice

Answer 40

@Vocaloid

Answer 41

we don't know anything about the side lengths of MP , MN, JK, or JL, just the angle between them

therefore there's no proof that these two shapes are similar

Answer 42

triangle proportionality theorem

DB/BC = DE/EF fill in the missing side lengths and see which proportion matches

Answer 43

any progress yet? you just need to look at the diagram to see what the side lengths are, plug them into the ratio, and see which answer choice matches the ratio

Answer 44

B? sorry, i'm kinda multitasking chores at the moment, continue please

Answer 45

good

Answer 46

thank you.

Answer 47

i'm just going to close this to prevent lag
