The answer is 9.

To calculate this, we will use Galileo's square cube law, used to describe the change of the area or the volume of the shape, when their dimensions increase or decrease. The formula used for change of the area is
A_2= A_1 (\frac{l_2}{l_1} )^{2}
A₂ - the area after the change,
A₁ - the area before the change,
l₂ - the dimension after the change,
l₁ - the dimension before the change.


It is given:
l₁ = 1 cm
l₂ = 3 cm

Let's use this formula for the mentioned triangle:
A_2=A_1( \frac{l_2}{l_1}) ^{2}  =A_1( \frac{3}{1})^{2} =A_1*3 ^{2} =9A_1

Therefore, the area of the triangle was multiplied by 9.

Do ΔCBG and ΔFEG in the figure appear to be similar? Why or why not?
Mama L [17]

Answer: Option C. They're not similar because only one pair of corresponding angles in the two triangles is congruent.

Solution:

The only one pair of corresponding angles in the two triangles is congruent is the angle BGC in ΔCBG and the angle FGE in ΔFEG, because they are vertical angles (opposite by the vertex)

elena55 [62]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  f(x) = 0.15x +25

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two points:

  (x, y) = (180, 52) or (350, 77.50)

The slope is given by ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (77.50 -52)/(350 -180) = 25.50/170 = 0.15

The y-intercept is given by ...

  b = y -mx

  b = 52 -0.15×180 = 25

Then the equation for the linear function is ...

  f(x) = mx +b

  f(x) = 0.15x +25

PLS HELP TIMED QUESTION!!!
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

About 5043.58

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for an exponential decay after t time is:

\displaystyle f(t)=a(r)^{t/d}

Where a is the initial value, r is the rate decay, t is the time that has passed, and d is the amount of time it takes for 1 cycle.

The initial value is 9800. So a = 9800.

The quantity cuts in half. So, r = 1/2.

And it cuts in half every 6 days. For this question, we will convert this to hours. 6 days = 144 hours. So, we can let d = 144, where t will be in hours.

Therefore, our function is:

\displaystyle f(t)=9800\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)^{t/144}

Where t is the amount of time that has passed, in hours.

Then the quantity left after 138 hours will be:

\displaystyle f(138)=9800\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)^{138/144}\approx 5043.58
