If ΔP′QR′ is a dilated image of ΔPQR, find the scale factor (k) and then find the value of x. answers: A) 7 B) 10.7 C) 6 D) 73.5

Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
To find k, calculate the ratio of corresponding sides, image to original, that is
k = [tex]\frac{P'R'}{PR}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{28}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex]
Thus
QR' = [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex] × QR = [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex] × 21 = 2 × 3 = 6 , that is
x = 6 → C
