Question

Rectangle ABCD was dilated to create rectangle A'B'C'D.

Answer 1

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's setup a proportion to find AB.

AB corresponds to A'B'.

BC corresponds to B'C'.

So setting up proportion this would look like:

[\tex]\frac{AB}{A'B'}=\frac{BC}{B'C'}[/tex]

[\tex]\frac{AB}{15}=\frac{3.8}{9.5}[/tex]

Cross multiply:

$AB(9.5)=15(3.8)$

Divide both sides by 9.5:

$AB=\frac{15(3.8)}{9.5)}$

Put into calculator:

$AB=6$

Answer 2

Answer: AB=6 so A is correct, hope this help! Branliest would be awesome :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the larger rectangle and the smaller rectangle are essentially the same just bigger, they will be proportionate.

Therefore..

9.5/3.8=15/AB

You can cross multiply to find AB...

9.5AB=57

Divide 57 by 9.5 to separate AB, which you can think of like x...

AB=57/9.5

AB=6
