Question

figure a is a scale image of figure b.
figure b
figure a
figure a maps to figure b with a scale factor of 0.25.
what is the value of x?

Explanation:

Step1: Escribir la ecuación de escala

Como la escala es \(0.25\), entonces \(1.5 = 0.25x\)

Step2: Resolver para \(x\)

Dividir ambos lados de la ecuación \(1.5 = 0.25x\) por \(0.25\):

$$x=\frac{1.5}{0.25}$$

$$x = 6$$

Answer:

\(6\)
