Answer:

The side length is multiplied by 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square is A = s². Suppose the side is 8 inches. This means the area is A = 8² = 64.

If you were to multiply by 36, then it becomes 64*36 = 2,304. Since squaring gave the area, it's side length would be found using the reverse operation a square root. Take the square root of 2,304.

√2304 = 48

The side length changed from 8 to 48 which is a scale factor of 6. This means 8 * 6 = 48.

The recipe says he needs 450 grams of rice for 6 people

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

1.35kg

Step-by-step explanation:

450g : 6 people

x : 18 people

To get from 6 to 18, multiply by 3 so do the same to the other side

450 × 3 = 1350g

To convert from g to kg divide by 1000

1350 ÷ 1000 = 1.35kg

Answer:

Slope: $\frac{3}{5}$

Y-Intercept: $(0,-5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find the slope, we need to have the equation in slope-intercept form, which is $y=mx+b$ . In this case, our equation is already in this form. $m$ is what your slope is. In this case, our

2. To find the y-intercept we look at value $b$ that is in $y=mx+b$ . In this case, $b$ is $-5$ . So, our ordered pair is $(0,-5)$ .
