sdas [7]

Answer:

Option a) 62.2 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The dilation is a non-rigid transformation that produces similar figures

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

Let

z ----> the scale factor

x ----> the area of the large shape

y ----> the area of the small shape

$z^{2}=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$z=\frac{4}{3}$

$y=35\ ft^2$

substitute

$(\frac{4}{3})^{2}=\frac{x}{35}$

$\frac{16}{9}=\frac{x}{35}$

solve for x

$x=\frac{16}{9}(35)=62.2\ ft^2$

Which of the following best describes perpendicular lines?

WARRIOR [948]

I think that your answer would be B) lines that meet at a 90 degree angle. These lines must intersect, and they have slopes that are opposite reciprocals when compared to each other.

Which equation represents a line which is parallel to the line x-3y=15?

LekaFEV [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines that are parallel have the same slope. If we make $x - 3y = 15$ in to slope-intercept form it'll be like this:

$x - 3y = 15 \\ -3y = 15 - x \\ y = \frac{15 - x}{-3} \\ y = \frac{1}{3}x - 5$

Now we know $y = \frac{1}{3}x - 5\\$ as its slope-intercept form we can see the slope is $\frac{1} {3}\\$ .

$y = \frac{1}{3}x + 4\\$ has the same slope as $y = \frac{1}{3}x - 5\\$ so they are both parallel.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

$y = \frac{1}{3}x + 4\\$

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

2 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we subtract 1 7/8 from 4 3/8 because Kyle "gives" away his candy. The answer to this is 2 1/2.
