Here is Triangle A. Lin created a scaled copy of Triangle A with an area of 72 square units. a. How many times larger is the are
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Triangle A is attached in the image below.

The base of triangle A is 3 units and its height is 3 units. The area of a triangle  is given as:

Area = (1/2) × base × height

Area of triangle A = (1/2) × base × height = (1/2) × 3 × 3 = 4.5 unit²

Area of the scaled copy = 72 unit²

Ratio of area = Area of the scaled copy / Area of triangle A = 72 unit² / 4.5 unit² = 16

Hence the scaled copy area is 16 times larger than that of triangle A.

b) For the scaled copy:

Area of the scaled copy = (1/2) × base × height = 72 unit²

base × height = 144

Since the base and height are equal

base² = 144

base = 12, also height = 12

Base of scaled copy = 12 = 4 × base of triangle A

Therefore the scale factor used is 4

I'm supposed to answer this word problem "Martin bought a television for $225. It had been on sale for 25% off. How much money d
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

<em>Martin saved $75 on the television because of the sale</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

Let's call x=the original price of the television (before discount).

The television had been on sale for 25% off, this means the discount was:

25% of x = \frac{25}{100}.x = 0.25x

The sale price was the original price minus the discount:

x - 0.25x = 0.75x

This is what Martin paid, thus:

0.75x = 225

Dividing by 0.75:

x = 225 / 0.75

x = $300

The original price of the television was $300, and the discount was:

0.25*$300 = $75

Martin saved $75 on the television because of the sale
