The sides of a polygon are 3, 5, 4, 7, 10 inches. Find the sides of a similar polygon if the ratio between their perimeter is 3 : 4. My teacher said for this problem, "Instead of 3 over 4, you are going to do 4 : 3. The reason for that is because it can be proportional either way and still be in that proportion." I don't get what is he talking about.

Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
