The correct answer would be Choice B: 4 square units.

When the scale factor is 1/5, that means the lengths of the sides are 1/5 of the original size. So instead of having a base of 20 and height of 10, the new triangle has a base of 4 and a height of 2.

The area of the triangle is: (4 x 2) / 2 = 4

Answer:

B) 4 units2

Step-by-step explanation:

The resultant triangle frmo the dilatation would have 1/5 of the size on each size, in the original triangle the base is 10 units and the height is 20 units, so 1/5 of 10 would be 2, and 1/5 of 20 would be 4, the resultant triangle from the dilatation at 1/5 would have an area of 4 squared units.

The area of the triangle is calculated with the next formula:

area=\frac{basexheight}{2} \\area=\frac{4x2}{2} \\Area=4u^{2}

Olegator [25]

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

if she had 10 left at the end and you add the other half from lunch which is 12, then that gives you 22. Since before lunch she had half (22), all you gotta do is add the other half which is 22. 22+22=44 and that's your answer.

How do you redraw a scale drawing with a new scale
rjkz [21]
 Take measurements of what you want to draw, (e.g. a simple cube that is 100 cm x 100 cm x 100 cm.) 
 A full scale drawing would require you to draw the cube on a paper 100 cm x 100 cm x 100 cm.
If you want to 'scale', you would then redraw using new measurements. So, a 1/10 scale drawing would mean that you would redraw the cube on paper as 10 cm x 10 cm x 10 cm.
A 1/20 scale would be 5 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm. The same concept holds for all scale drawings.

Find dy/dx by implicit differentiation. <br> 4x2 + 5xy - y2 = 6
Vlada [557]
4x^2 + 5xy - y^2 = 6
Implicitly differentiating both sides,
4(2x) + 5(x y' + y) - 2yy' = 0

where y' = dy/dx

8x + 5xy' +5y  -2yy' = 0

combining y' terms
y' (5x-2y) +8x +5y = 0

y'(5x-2y) = -(8x+5y)

dy/dx = -(8x+5y)/(5x-2y)
or
dy/dx = (8x+5y)/(2y-5x)
