Question

URGENT!!!! PLZ HELP!!!

1.One rectangle measures 2 units by 7 units. A second rectangle measures 11 units by 37 units. Are these two figures scaled versions of each other? If so, find the scale factor. If not, briefly explain why.

2. Ants have 6 legs. Elena and Andre write equations showing the proportional relationship between the number of ants, A, to the number of ant legs L. Elena writes A = 6 times L, and Andre writes A = ⅙ times A. Do you agree with either of the equations? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

1. is not a scaled version

2.With Elena

Explanation:

1.If you divide 11 by 2 it will equal 5.5 but if you divide 37 by 7 it equals a different number.They have to be the same number in order to be scaled.

2.Elena is showing whole numbers while Andre is giving 1/6 of a whole.Andre is technically saying that an ant has 1/6 feet he would of said 6/1.

Hope this help!!
