Answer: length = 4.5 m, width = 3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

When a shape is enlarged using a scale factor, you simply multiply each of the sides by the scale factor.

length = 3 * 1.5 = 4.5 m

width = 2 * 1.5 = 3 m

Find the value of the following expression below 8(15-4)/4^2-5

Sonja [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is 1/2 or 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

8(15-4)/4^2-5

8(11)/4^2-5

Now i'm going to multiply 8 by 11

88/4^2-5

Now solve 4^2

Which is 16.

Now we have 88/16-5

Divide 88 and 16 which is 5.5.

Now minus 5.5 - 5 which gets us our answer: 0.5

Quadrilateral ABCD is a a square and the length of BE is 6 cm.<br><br>What is the length of AC?

Aloiza [94]

The answer is: 12 centimeters.

The explanation is shown below:

1. By definition, all four sides of the square are equal and the diagonals are equal too.

2. Keeping the information above on mind, you know that AC and BD are equal:

$AC=BD$

3. Then, the length of BD is twice BE. So, you can calculate it as following:

$BD=2BE$

$BD=2(6cm)\\BD=12cm$

4. Therefore, the lenght of AC is:

$AC=12cm$
