Answer:  The correct option is (B) (3x-4).

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Sam decides to build a square garden whose area is as follows:

A=9x^2-24x+16~\textup{square feet}.

We are to find the length of one side of the garden.

Since the given garden is of a square shape, so the length of each side is same.

That is, the area of the garden must be a perfect square trinomial.

We have

A\\\\=9x^2-24x+16\\\\=(3x)^2-2\times 3x\times 4+4^2\\\\=(3x-4)^2.

Since the area of a square is (length)², so the length of one side of the garden is (3x-4)~\textup{feet}.

Thus, (B) is the correct option.

K12: Graph the image of this triangle after a dilation with a scale factor of 3 centered at the origin.
Musya8 [376]

The points after Dilation are (0,0), (9,-3), and (9,9).

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The given points are A(0,0), B(3,-1), and C(3,3).

The scale factor is 3.

D_{new}(p_{x} , p_{y}) = scale factor × (p_{x} , p_{y}) .

If the triangle starts form the origin (0,0) retains the same after the dilation.

D_{Anew}(p_{x} , p_{y})= (0,0).

For point B(-1,3),

D_{Bnew}(p_{x} , p_{y}) = 3 × (3,-1).

D_{Bnew}(p_{x} , p_{y}) = (9,-3).

For Point C(3,3),

D_{Cnew}(p_{x} , p_{y}) =  3 × ( 3,3).

D_{Cnew}(p_{x} , p_{y}) = ( 9,9).

Refer the graph for dilated triangle.
