To solve this exercise you must follow the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have the the lengths of the sides of equilateral triangle which is inscribed inside a similar triangle are 10 cm. Therefore, the area is:

 A1=bxh/2
 A1=10 cmx10 cm/2
 A1=50 cm²

 2. <span>The larger triangle is dilated with a scale factor of 3 from the smaller triangle. Using the ratio of the area:

 (1/3)</span>²<span>=50/A2
 1/9=50/A2
 A2=450 cm</span>²
<span>
 3. The area of the shaded region is:

 At=A2-A1
 At=400 cm</span>²

(-6,0)

Intersecting at x-axis means that the point at which it will intersect will have a x coordinate but no y coordinate.

So,In the equation,y=-3x-18

put y=0

-3x-18=0

or,3x=-18

or,x=-6

So,the point of intersection is (-6,0)

A snowmobile traveled 32 miles in 213 hours.
patriot [66]
The average speed of the snowmobile can be obtained by using the formula: speed = distance/time which was also given in the problem statement. This means that the average speed refers to how far you have traveled in a period of time. In this case, the snowmobile traveled 32 miles in 213 hours. We then simply divide the distance, 32 miles, by the time it took for the snowmobile to travel such distance which is 213 hours. The average speed of the automobile is calculated to be 0.1502 miles per hour. When rounded off to the nearest tenth, the final answer is then 0.2 miles per hour.
