Tristan is working on dilating rectangles. Rectangle ABCD is dilated by a factor of 3. The resulting rectangle WXYZ has an area

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Tristan is correct, because he needs to find the possible dimensions for rectangle WXYZ and then divide each dimension by 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangle ABCD is dilated by a factor of 3 to get the rectangle WXYZ whose area is found to be 72 cm².

Let the dimensions of the dilated rectangle WXYZ are a cm by b cm.

So, ab = 72 ........... (1)

Now, the dimensions of the original rectangle are 3 times lesser than the dimensions of rectangle WXYZ.

So, the area of rectangle ABCD will be $(\frac{a}{3} \times \frac{b}{3}) = \frac{ab}{9} = \frac{72}{9} = 8$ cm² {from equation (1)}

Therefore, Tristan is correct, because he needs to find the possible dimensions for rectangle WXYZ and then divide each dimension by 3. (Answer)

Aliun [14]

Corrine earns an hourly wage on top of her weekly gas allowance for her delivery job.

Her weekly earnings can be expressed as:

Earnings = 40 + 7.50h

When h=0, her earnings will be 40

This constant represents, the fixed gas allowance she is receiving for her delivery job. 7.50h represents that she get paid $7.50 for an hour of work.
