<h3>Answer:</h3>

<u>It squares the amount you scaled it by.</u>

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

For example, imagine that you had 2 by 2 square, and then you put it through a scale factor of 2.

Now each side length would be double of what it once was.

But when you multiply the new lengths together, the area would be of 4 times more.

(Original Equation) 2 * 2 = 4

(Scale Factor of 2) 4 * 4 = 16

So when the scale factor is made, the area would be squared to the multiple that you scaled it by.

<em>***A square root is a number times itself.</em>

<em>9 and 225 would be the square root in these problems.</em>

22. Find the perimeter and area.

zmey [24]

Answer:

Part 22) The area is $A=15a^3b^6\ units^2($ and the perimeter is $P=10a^2b^4+6ab^2\ unit$

Part 24) The area is $A=16m^3n\ units^2$ and the perimeter is $P=24mn\ units$

Part 26) The area is equal to $A=9\pi x^6y^{2}\ units^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 22) Find the perimeter and area

step 1

The area of a rectangle is equal to

$A=LW$

we have

$L=5(a^2)(b^4)\ units$

$W=3(a)(b^2)\ units$

Remember that

When multiply exponents with the same base, adds the exponents and maintain the base

substitute in the formula

$A=(5(a^2)(b^4))(3(a)(b^2))$

$A=15a^3b^6\ units^2$

step 2

The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to

$P=2(L+W)$

we have

$L=5(a^2)(b^4)\ units$

$W=3(a)(b^2)\ units$

substitute in the formula

$P=2(5(a^2)(b^4)+3(a)(b^2))$

$P=10a^2b^4+6ab^2\ unit$

Part 24) Find the perimeter and area

step 1

The area of triangle is equal to

$A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

where

$b=8mn\ units$

$h=4m^2\ units$

Remember that

When multiply exponents with the same base, adds the exponents and maintain the base

substitute the given values

$A=\frac{1}{2}(8mn)(4m^2)$

$A=16m^3n\ units^2$

step 2

Find the perimeter

I will assume that is an equilateral triangle (has three equal length sides)

The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is

$P=3b$

where

$b=8mn\ units$

substitute

$P=3(8mn)$

$P=24mn\ units$

Part 26) Find the area

The area of a circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

where

$r=3x^3y\ units$

Remember the property

$(a^{m})^{n}=a^{m*n}$

substitute in the formula the given value

$A=\pi (3x^3y)^{2}$

$A=9\pi x^6y^{2}\ units^2$

stiv31 [10]

After an hour (4pm to 5pm) the temperature drops 18e⁻⁰˙⁶=9.9℉, so the temperature after an hour will be 68-9.9=58.1℉.
(The change -18e⁻⁰˙⁶ is negative indicating a drop in temperature.)

Sorry again but i'm having trouble on this one

Lisa [10]

Answer:

m∠PNO = 60°

m∠O = 33°

Step-by-step explanation:

∡NPO is 87° because it's a vertical angle with the 87° angle

3) ∡PNO is supplementary to the 120° angle (they must add to 180°)

4) m∠O = 180 - (60 + 87) = 33
