Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the scale factor between circle P and circle Q, divide the diameter of circle Q by the diameter of circle P, 4.5 ft÷1.5 ft = 3. The scale factor between circle P and circle Q is 3.
Answer:
The correct option is C and the scale factor which converts P to Q is 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the figure it is clear that the diameter of circle P is 1.5 feet and the diameter of circle Q is 4.5 feet.
Circle P is pre-image and circle Q is image.
Scale factor is the proportion of diameter of image and pre-image.
[tex]k=\frac{4.5}{1.5}[/tex]
[tex]k=3[/tex]
Therefore the scale factor which converts P to Q is 3 and correct option is C.
