Mathematics

Answer:  The correct option is (A) 6.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the scale factor of dilation from triangle ABC to triangle XYZ.

From the figure, we note that

The lengths of the sides of triangles ABC and XYZ are as follows :

AB = 5 units, BC = 4 units, AC = 3 units, XY = 30 units, YZ = 24 units and XZ = 18 units.

We know that

\textup{Scale factor}=\dfrac{\textup{length of a side of the dilated figure}}{\textup{length of the corresponding side of the original figure}}.

Therefore, for the given triangles, we get

\textup{Scale factor}=\dfrac{XY}{AB}=\dfrac{30}{5}=6.

Thus, the required scale factor of dilation is 6.

Option (A) is CORRECT.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the scale factor k, find the ratio of corresponding sides

\frac{XZ}{AC} = \frac{18}{3} = 6

\frac{YZ}{BC} = \frac{24}{4} = 6

Hence the scale factor k = 6 → A

A light bulb consumes 600 watt-hours per day. How many watt-hours does it consume in 3 days and 18 hours
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

2250 watt-hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so we first need to find out how many watt-hours the light bulb consumes in 1 hours, so we need to divide 600 by 24 hours, which gives us a rate of 25 watt-hours per hour.

So if the light bulb consumes 600 hours per day, and it runs for 3 days, you multiply 600 by 3 to get 1800.

And because we know that it also consumes 25 watt-hours per hour, we multiply 25 and 18 together to get 450 hours.

Finally, you add 1800 and 450 together to get 2250 watt-hours.

Hope this helps :)
