For a certain font, the scale factor is 1.42 and one of the scale sizes is 2.863. what is the next smaller scale size? enter your answer as a decimal in the box. round your final answer to the thousandth.

2.016.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that for a certain font, the scale factor is 1.42 and one of the scale sizes is 2.863.

To find the next smaller scale size we will divide our given scale size by the given scale factor.

Upon rounding our answer to the nearest thousandth we will get,

Therefore, the next smaller scale size is 2.016.

problem:

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this !
