For this 10 point assignment - answer the following questions in COMPLETE sentences and use examples to help support your answer. You could copy and paste these questions onto your blog if you need to and then type your answers in different colors. Write me a comment on this assignment when you finish! :)

1) Think back to Mug Wump - how did you decide which characters were similar to him? How did you decided which characters were NOT similar to him?

2) If I used (x, y) to create Mug and I used (4x, 4y) to create a new character, Pug, how would Pug be similar to Mug? What is the scale factor from Mug to Pug? How many Mugs would fit into one Pug (area)?

I decided which characters were similiar by finding out the scale factors . I found out which characters wer not similiar to him because the (x,y) were totally different from mugs (x,y).

Pug would be similiar to Mug because Pug is just 4x the size of Mug. The scale factor from Mug to Pug is x4. 16 Mugs would fit into one Pug.

Hi Emily! Your answer to #1 was almost right - what about if there were different scale factors? Also, I will leave you comments on your post but not your grade.
