After triangle ACE is dilated by a factor of 6, it has an area of 180 square inches. What was its area before dilation?

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The area of triangle ACE before dilation is: 30 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when an object is dilated by a scale factor, it gets reduced, stretched, or remains the same, depending upon the value of the scale factor.

If the scale factor > 1, the image is enlarged

If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, it gets shrunk

If the scale factor = 1, the object and the image are congruent

The length of the image can be determined by multiplying the length of the original point by a certain scale factor.

Given that after triangle ACE is dilated by a factor of 6, it has an area of 180 square inches.

Thus, it means the dilated area is 6 times the area before dilation.

Let x be the pre-dilation area

As the dilated area is 6 times the area before dilation, so

6x = 180

divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = 180/6

x = 30 square inches.

Therefore, the area of triangle ACE before dilation is: 30 square inches

Adena, Julius, and Tia volunteered to read to children at the public library. Julius worked two hours less than Tia. Adena worke

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

28 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Adena, Julius, and Tia volunteered to read to children at the public library.

Let us represent, the number of hours worked by

Adena = x

Julius = y

Tia = z

Julius worked two hours less than Tia.

y = z - 2

z = y + 2

Adena worked twice as many hours as Julius.

x = 2y

Altogether they worked 58 hours.

x + y + z = 58.... Equation 1

We substitute 2y for x and y + 2 for z in Equation 1

2y + y + y + 2 = 58

4y + 2 = 58

Collect like terms

4y = 58 - 2

4y = 56

y = 56/4

y = 14

We are the find the number of hours Adena worked which is represented by x

Note that:

x = 2y

y = 14, hence,

x = 2 × 14

x = 28 hours

Therefore, the number of hours Adena worked is 28 hours

Section 5.2 Problem 17:

Elina [12.6K]

This DE has characteristic equation

$4r^2 - 12r + 9r = (2r - 3)^2 = 0$

with a repeated root at r = 3/2. Then the characteristic solution is

$y_c = C_1 e^{\frac32 x} + C_2 x e^{\frac32 x}$

which has derivative

${y_c}' = \dfrac{3C_1}2 e^{\frac32 x} + \dfrac{3C_2}2 x e^{\frac32x} + C_2 e^{\frac32 x}$

Use the given initial conditions to solve for the constants:

$y(0) = 3 \implies 3 = C_1$

$y'(0) = \dfrac52 \implies \dfrac52 = \dfrac{3C_1}2 + C_2 \implies C_2 = -2$

and so the particular solution to the IVP is

$\boxed{y(x) = 3 e^{\frac32 x} - 2 x e^{\frac32 x}}$
