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.

If f(x) = -x^3 + 2x^2 - 3, find f(2).<br><br> A) -19<br> B) -3<br> C) -1<br> D) 5
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate f(2) substitute x = 2 into f(x), that is

f(2) = - (2)³ + 2(2)² - 3 = - 8 +2(4) - 3 = - 8 + 8 - 3 = - 3
