Answer:

1:4

Step-by-step explanation:

Current map scale 1:12

Three times bigger would be

3\times \frac{1}{12}=\frac{1}{4}=1:4

This would mean that 1 inch on the map would be 4 yards in the real world

Let us take example

If something measured 100 yards in the real world then in the old map it would be \frac{100}{12}=8.33 inches in the map

Now in the new map if something measured 100 yards in the real world then in the new map it would be  \frac{100}{4}=25 inches.

So, the new scale would be 1:4, this means that 1 yard in the actual world would be 4 inches in the map.

Use the rule (x,y) (3x,2y) to find the image for the preimage defined by the given points.
Elina [12.6K]

Answer: The points of the images are  (9,10), (15,6), (6,4)  and the image is not a rigid motion because the shape changes in side.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it gives you the scale factor then find they coordinates by multiplying the coordinates by the scare factor.

A(3,5) → (3*3,5*2) → (9,10)

B( 5,3) → (5*3, 3*2) → (15,6)

C ( 2,3)→ (2*3, 2*2)→ ( 6,4)
