Answer:

The area of the enlarged triangle is 4 times the original area

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale factor is equal to divide the measurement of the length side of the enlarged triangle by the the measurement of the length of the corresponding side of the original triangle

In his problem

Let

x------> the length side of the original triangle

so

2x----->  is the length of the corresponding side of the enlarged triangle

scale\ factor=\frac{2x}{x}=2

scale\ factor> 1 -------> that means is increasing

The scale factor squared is equal to the ratio of the area of the enlarged triangle divided by the area of the original triangle

so

Let

m-------> the area of the enlarged triangle

n------> the area of the original triangle

r-------> scale factor

r^{2} =\frac{m}{n}

we have

r=2

substitute

2^{2} =\frac{m}{n}

m=4n

therefore

The area of the enlarged triangle is 4 times the original area

A travel website sells tickets to a city for two airlines. Among those buying tickets, 20% fly airline A, and 80% fly airline B.
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The expected revenue of an airline ticket sold by this travel website is $408

Step-by-step explanation:

For the revenues per ticket we have;

airline A; 600

airline B; 360

For the probability of choosing the airlines we have;

airline A; 20% = 0.2

airline B; 80% = 0.8

Therefore, the expected revenue of an airline ticket sold by this travel website is;

600(0.2) + 360(0.8) = 408

Therefore, the expected revenue of an airline ticket sold by this travel website is $408
