Answer:

Sorry, it's actually the third one, 4.8 feet

Explanation:

First, you divide the length of the family room tv by the length of the tv in Louise's room

5 divided by 1.5 equals 3.33

Then, you divide the width of the family room tv to get the width of Louise's tv

3 divided by 3.33 is 0.9

Now, you follow the formula for perimeter.

(0.9 + 1.5) x 2 = 4.8

The perimeter of Louise's tv is 4.8 feet.

Answer:

  • H. 4.8 ft

Explanation:

Similar figures have same ratio of corresponding sides.

The scale factor is:

  • 1.5/ 5 = 3/10

The width of the smaller television is:

  • 3*3/10 = 9/10 = 0.9

Perimeter:

  • P = 2(w + l)
  • P = 2(1.5 + 0.9) = 4.8 ft

Correct choice is H
