So basically the side length went from 3 to 7.5, so we have to find the factor which caused the increase. We have to find what times 3 makes 7.5

So our equation is 3×x=7.5
From here on it's just algebra, we'll divide each side by 3 to isolate x

7.5/3=2.5
x=2.5
So the scale factor applied to the first rectangle is 2.5

A thermometer reading 5 degrees celsius is brought into a room with a constant temperature of 35 degrees celsius.

Softa [21]

If it starts at 5 degrees celsius and raises to 15 degrees celsius in 3 minutes it increases by about 3 1/3 every minute.
times that by 5 and you get 16 2/3. times that by 10 and you get 33 1/3

Correct Answer: Option A

The next step in simplification will be to convert the squared term so that it no longer contains a square.

So, we are to simplify the term $cos^{2}(2x)$

Using the half-angle identity we can write:

$cos^{2}(2x)= \frac{1+cos(4x)}{2}$

Using this value, the equation becomes:

$sin^{4}x=1-2cos(2x)+ \frac{ \frac{1+cos(4x)}{2} }{4}$

Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
