Question

The sides of ABC are 30 units, 40 units, and 60 units in length. If the corresponding sides of XYZ are r times as long as the sides of ABC, which expression gives the perimeter of XYZ? 130r 3 x 130r

Answer 1

Since each side is r times the side of ABC, then 30*r+40*r+60*r is the perimeter, which equals 130r (by separating it into r*(30+40+60) using the distributive property)
