Answer : The solution must be more than 1.

Step-by-step explanation :

Let us assume the two fractions that are both greater than 1/2.

Example 1:

The first fraction is, \frac{3}{2}

The second fraction is, \frac{5}{2}

Now adding two fractions, we get:

\frac{3}{2}+\frac{5}{2}

=\frac{8}{2}

=4

Example 2:

The first fraction is, \frac{5}{2}

The second fraction is, \frac{7}{2}

Now adding two fractions, we get:

\frac{5}{2}+\frac{7}{2}

=\frac{12}{2}

=6

Example 3:

The first fraction is, \frac{2}{2}

The second fraction is, \frac{3}{2}

Now adding two fractions, we get:

\frac{2}{2}+\frac{3}{2}

=\frac{5}{2}

=2.5

From this we conclude that if we are adding two fractions that are both greater than 1/2 then the sum of the two fractions will always be greater than 1.

Hence, the solution must be more than 1.

Quadrilateral ABCD is dilated by a scale factor of 3/2 to create quadrilateral A'B'C'D'. If quadrilateral ABCD has an area of 30
kow [346]

Answer:

67.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are translation, rotation, reflection and dilation.

Dilation is the enlargement or reduction of an object by a factor.

The area of ABCD = AB * BC = 30

As a result of the dilation to form A'B'C'D', A'B' = 3/2 * AB, B'C' = 3/2 * BC, C'D' = 3/2 * CD and A'D' = 3/2 * AD. Hence:

Area of A'B'C'D' = A'B' * B'C' =  3/2 * AB * 3/2 * BC = 9/4 * (AB * BC) = 9/4 * 30 = 67.5
