the first figure is dilated to form the second figure.

which statement is true?

the scale factor is 0.8.
the scale factor is 1.25.
the scale factor is 2.0.
the scale factor is 18.0.

The answer is (a) The scale factor is 1.25.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given two figures in the question, where the second one is dilated from the first one. We are to find the scale factor here.

One side of the dilated figure is of length 10 inch and the original figure has a side of length 8 units.

Therefore, the scale factor is given by

Therefore, the scale factor is 1.25 and (B) is the correct option.

hey seth! : )

i’m not 100% sure, but i think it’s b

hope this ya : p

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
