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

12 men working 8 hours a day complete a piece of work in 10 days to complete a the same work in 8 days working 15 hours a days t
daser333 [38]

12 men : 8 hours : 10 days


// Find if every man works 1 hour

12 x 8 men : 1 hour : 10 days

96 men : 1 hour : 10 days


//Find if every man works 15 hours

96 ÷ 15 men : 15 hours : 10 days

6.4 men : 15 hours : 10 days


//Find if every man works 1 day

6.4 x 10 men : 15 hours : 1 day

64 men : 15 hours : 1 day


//Find if every man works 8 days

64 ÷ 8 men : 15 hours : 8 days

8 men : 15 hours : 8 days

What vaule of x makes th question true? 3x+2(x-5)=50 a. 8 b.9 c.11 d.12
Ainat [17]
Hey Tierra7l, 

Lets solve your equation together step by step. 

3x+2\left(x-5\right)=50 

\mathrm{Expand}\:2\left(x-5\right):\quad 2x-10 

\mathrm{Distribute\:parentheses\:using}:\quad \:a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac 

                                    a=2,\:b=x,\:c=-5 

2\cdot \:x+2\left(-5\right) 

\mathrm{Apply\:minus-plus\:rules} 

\:\:+\left(-a\right)=-a 

2x-2\cdot \:5 

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:5=10 

2x-10 

3x+2x-10=50 

\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:3x+2x=5x 

5x-10=50 

\mathrm{Add\:}10\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides} 

5x-10+10=50+10 

\mathrm{Simplify} 

5x=60 

\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}5 

\dfrac{5x}{5}=\dfrac{60}{5} 

\mathrm{Simplify} 

x=12 

Hope this helps,

The graph of g(x) is a transformation of the graph of f(x)=2x. Enter the equation for g(x) in the box. g(x) =
Lunna [17]
<h3>Answer:  g(x) = 2^x - 3</h3>

The -3 is not in the exponent

Explanation:

The parent function is f(x) = 2^x. Plugging in x = 0 leads to y = 1. So the point (0,1) is on the f(x) curve. Going from (0,1) to (0,-2) is a vertical shift of 3 units downward. To represent this shift, we tack on a "-3" at the end of the f(x) function.

g(x) = f(x) - 3\\\\g(x) = 2^x - 3

You could look at other points as well, but I find working with x = 0 is easiest.

As a check, plugging x = 0 into g(x) leads to...

g(x) = 2^x - 3\\\\g(0) = 2^0 - 3\\\\g(0) = 1 - 3\\\\g(0) = -2

This confirms our answer.
