Question:

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

part A) The scale factor of the sides (small to large) is 1/2

part B) Te ratio of the areas (small to large) is 1/4

part C) see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Determine the scale factor of the sides (small to large).

we know that

The dilation is a non rigid transformation that produce similar figures

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional

Let

z ----> the scale factor

$\frac{CB}{C'B'}=\frac{CD}{C'D'}=\frac{BD}{B'D'}$

The scale factor is equal to

$z=\frac{CB}{C'B'}$

substitute

$z=\frac{4}{8}$

simplify

$z=\frac{1}{2}$

Part B) What is the ratio of the areas (small to large)?

<em>Area of the small triangle</em>

$A=\frac{1}{2}(2)(4)=4\ units^2$

<em>Area of the large triangle</em>

$A=\frac{1}{2}(4)(8)=16\ units^2$

ratio of the areas (small to large)

$ratio=\frac{4}{16}=\frac{1}{4}$

Part C) Write a generalization about the ratio of the sides and the ratio of the areas of similar figures

In similar figures the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and this ratio is called the scale factor

In similar figures the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

It takes 40 units of maple sap to produce 1 ounce of maple syrup. Jane and her family are bottling maple syrup in 20 -ounce bott

Setler [38]

Answer:

10,800

-1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

40 units of maple sap = 1 ounce of maple syrup

Using a 20 - ounce bottle, 2 ounces of air is left

Ounces of actual syrup = (20 - 2) = 18 ounces

Number of maple sap required to fill 15 bottles :

Number of maple saps required to fill 18 ounces bottle :

40 units = 1 ounce

x = 18 ounces

Hence, for 18 ounces of maple syrup :

(40 * 18).= 720 units of maple sap

For 15 bottles of 18 ounces maple syrup:

(720 * 15) = 10,800 units of maple sap

If they had filled each bottle to the top:

(40 * 20 * 15) = 12000 units of maple sap

10,800 - 12000 = - 1200 units of maple sap
