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.

Solve the system of equations 5x-2y=88 3x+4y=58 show all work
diamong [38]
The given equations are:

5x - 2y = 88
3x + 4y =  58

Multiplying the 1st equation by 2, we get the new set of equations as:

10x - 4y = 176
3x + 4y = 58

Adding the two equations, we get:

10x - 4y + 3x + 4y = 176 + 58
13x =234
x =  18

Using the value of x in 1st equation, we get:

5(18) - 2y = 88
- 2y = 88 -5(18)
-2y = -2
y = 1

So, the solution of the equation is (18, 1)

What is the value of x? Round to the nearest tenth.
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

27.5

Step-by-step explanation:

first you find what 30x30 is as A squared plus B squared is equal to C squared. your A is 12 and your C is 30.

so!

30x30 is 900

12x12 is 144

subtract 144 from 900 and you get 756. once you find the square root you get 27.49. then round up to 27.5

The Smith family went out to eat at Applebees. The total for their meal was $58.25. If they want to leave a 20%, how much tip sh
Len [333]

Answer:

$11.65

Step-by-step explanation:

20% of 58.25, "of" in math means multiplication. So you multiply it.

To get 20% as a fraction you move the decimal 2 places to the left, and it's .2 or .20 so you get this equation:

.20 * 58.25

So your answer is, $11.65.

To find the total of the bill including the tip it would just be

11.65 + 58.25 = 69.90
