Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, john did make his scale factor the right way, because

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x 2.5 = 7.5, Seen on the right figure/shape/parallelogram

2 x 2.5 = 5, Seen on the right figure/shape/parallelogram

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes he did it correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

• The scale factor is the number you get after you divide the values of the corresponding sides of both shapes
• For this example the 2 side is similar to the 5 side and the 3 side is similar to the 7.5 side.
• So we make ratios from the first figure to the second figure
• That will 2 from the first to 5 five from the second so 2 : 5
• Then 3 from the first to 7.5 from the second so 3 : 7.5
• The scale factor must be same for every ratio, or else the transformation is incorrect
• Check the ratios, does $2:5=3:7.5$ ?
• $2:5=\frac{2}{5} =0.4$
• $3:7.5=\frac{3}{7.5} =0.4$ yes, so it is a correct transformation
