Answer:

25 times larger

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor is 5, so each side length of the polygon was multiplied by 5.

<h2>Key Idea</h2>

If the length of a figure scales by x, then area of the figure scales by x^{2}

The Polygon B is created with a scale factor of 5. So, the area of Polygon B scales by 5^{2}

5^{2} = 5 × 5=25

The area of Polygon B is 25 times larger than the area of Polygon A

That explanation was from Khan Academy. Good luck on your learning!

We know that

[Area of Polygon B]=[scale factor]²*[Area of Polygon A]
[scale factor]=5
so

[Area of Polygon B]=[5]²*[Area of Polygon A]

[Area of Polygon B]=[25]*[Area of Polygon A]

the answer is
 the area of Polygon B than the area Polygon A is 25 times larger

To avoid detection at customs, a traveler places 6 narcotic tablets in a bottle containing 9 vitamin tablets that are similar in
lukranit [14]

Answer: \dfrac{26}{27}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : To avoid detection at customs, a traveler places 6 narcotic tablets in a bottle containing 9 vitamin tablets that are similar in appearance.

Proportion of success : p=\dfrac{6}{9}=\dfrac{2}{3}

Sample size taken by customs official : n= 3

Let x be a binomial variable that represents the tablets in the bottle.

Using Binomial probability formula :-

P(X=x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

The probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics =P(x\geq1)=1-P(x=0)

1-^3C_0(\dfrac{2}{3})^0(1-\dfrac{2}{3})^3\\\\=1-(1)(1)(\dfrac{1}{3})^3\ [\becuase ^nC_0=1]\\\\=1-\dfrac{1}{27}=\dfrac{26}{27}

Hence, the probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics = \dfrac{26}{27}

Noah pays $25.20 for non-perishable food items to give to the local homeless shelter the price includes a 5% sales tax.
Alexandra [31]

The question is incomplete:

Noah pays $25.20 for non perishable food items to give to the local homeless shelter the price includes a 5% sales of tax. what is the price before tax of the food items?

Answer:

$24

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information you have that the price of items is $25.20 and it includes a 5% tax. From this, you can write the following:

x+0.05x=25.20

Then, you can isolate x to find the price before tax:

1.05x=25.20

x=25.20/1.05

x= 24

According to this, the price before tax of the food items is $24.
