Can someone help me out with my math homework my grades are bad

Answers:

It's not clear which version of WX your teacher wants, so I provided both of them.

Explanation:

Focus on the perimeters. The jump from 36 to 30 means the linear scale factor is 30/36 = 5/6

This means,

WX/YZ = 5/6

WX/5 = 5/6

6WX = 5*5

6WX = 25

WX = 25/6 which is exact

WX = 4.167 approximately

The linear scale factor is 5/6, so the area scale factor is (5/6)^2 = 25/36.

The area of figure 1 is 216 cm^2, making the area of figure 2 to be 216*(25/36) = 150 cm^2

b

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.
