The reactangle has an area of x.
So that means two numbers multiplied to each other equal to x. We can just think of itwo numbers that when multiplied equal to x as a and b.
So that means the side lengths are <u />a and b. And ab = x (will be using this right next).
And it was multiplied by some scale factor that made the new area 9x. So if the scale factor is y, then:




y can not equal to -3, because the length of a side of any polygon can never be negative.
So the dilation is 3.And so if the dimension is 5 by 8.
Then the area is

And so then

And then after the dilation, it would be

We could check it another way too. Since we said the scale factor is 3, then:

So
basically
15 by 24 is the new dimensions :)
Hi!!!! I think the answer is B or D! Have a nice day!!
Answer:
r = 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides by 4

Divide both sides by 3

Since there is a 180 degrees in a straight line and we know that the intersection of one angle is 27 degrees we can can say 180 -27 = 153 degrees. So the four angles would be 27, 27 153, 153
3x^2 - 7x + 12 = 0 ....subtract 12 from both sides
3x^2 - 7x = -12 ....divide both sides by 3 to get x^2 by itself
x^2 - 7/3x = -4
His work is not accurate because he divided the second term by 4 instead of 3.
