Figure A is a scale image of figure B. Figure A maps to figure B with a scale factor of 2/7 What is the value of x?

42

Step-by-step explanation:

If the scale factor is 2/7 divide 12 by 2 which is 6. 6 is 1/7 and if Figure a is 7/7

multiply 6 by 7 to get x. That would be 42.

42

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the scale factor is , we know that the bigger shape went to the smaller shape.

If we know that the smaller shape's side, 12, is of the bigger one, we can make the equation

.

To solve for x, we can divide both sides by  .

We can multiply by the reciprocal:

Hope this helped!

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

answer: 16

step-by-step explanation: first you would add 6+6 which equals 12 then add 2+2 which equals 4. then add 12 + 4 which is 16.

hope this ^_^
