Answer:

Width is 2 and Length is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. As the data is given, the area of a playground is 12 square yards.
  2. The length of the playground is 3 times longer than its width.  
  3. Let width is x, length is 3 times therefore, length = 3x

As we know the formula for area,

  • Area=length x width.

So by putting values in this formula,

  • 12sq = (3x)(x)  

=> 3x2 = 12

=> x2 = 12/3,

=> x2 = 4 ,

by taking square root we get x= 2,

  • the width is 2 and length is 3 times hence, length is 3(2) = 6.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH MY GEOMETRY HOMEWORK!!!! I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M SUPPOSED TO DO SO CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP M
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation is the transformation that changes the size of something. When you choose ×110% on a copy machine, you are making all the dimensions in the copy equal to 1.1 times the dimensions of the original, for example. That is dilation by a factor of 1.1, or 110%.

Here, you're asked to dilate triangle ABC by a factor of 3. That means all of the dimensions on the dilated figure will be 3 times their length on the original.

The center of dilation is point P. That means all the distances from point P are multiplied by 3.

In the attached figure, a gray arrow has been drawn from point P to each of the points A, B, and C. Then two more arrows of the same length are drawn in the same direction. The total distance at the end of the 3 arrows is 3 times the original distance from point P. These are the points A', B', and C' you are asked to draw. Connecting these points gives the dilated triangle A'B'C'.

___

You could think of point P (the center of dilation) as having coordinates (0, 0). Then points A, B, and C would have coordinates A(-4, 0), B(0, -3), and C(-4, -3). To dilate these points by a factor of 3, multiply each coordinate value by 3: A'(-12, 0), B'(0, -9), C'(-12, -9). You will see that these are the coordinates of the vertices of the dilated triangle.
