Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A cereal manufacturer decides to offer a new family-sized box based on the regular-sized box. They want the volume of the family-sized box to be three times the volume of the regular-sized box. However, they want the length of the family-sized box to be the same as the regular-sized box.

If original dimensions are l,w and h then volume = lwh

Volume of new box is= 3lwh

But here w becomes 2w and l remains the same.  Let h' be the new height

Then we have

l(2w)h' = 3lwh\\h' =1.5 h

So by 1.5 factor height should be dilated.

Sn = (a1) x (1 - r^n) / (1 - r)


Substituting the known values:

Triangle ABC was rotated about the origin. Which rule
Nuetrik [128]
<h3>Answer: Choice A   R_0, 90^{\circ}</h3>

The R stands for "rotation". The "O" as a small subscript means "origin" which is where the x and y axis cross. The 90 degrees means we rotate 90 degrees counterclockwise. This is equivalent to 270 degrees clockwise, but writing R_0, 270^{\circ} is not correct as we don't rotate 270 degrees counterclockwise.
