By definition, the area of a triangle is given by:

A = (1/2) * (b) * (h)

Where,

b: base

h: height

The area of the original triangle is 3 mm² and is dilated by a factor of 6. We have then

A = (1/2) * (6b) * (6h)

A = (1/2) * (b) * (h) * (6) * (6)

A = 3 * (6) * (6)

A = 108 mm²

answer

The area of the dilated triangle is 108 mm²

Plastic cups come in packages of 24 and straws come in packages of 20, whats the smallest number of each that could be bought so

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of plastic cups = 24

No. of straws =20

We need to find the smallest number of each that could be bought so that you had the same amount of cups and straws.

Prime factrisation of 24 = 2×3×2×2

Prime factorisation of 20 = 2×5×2

LCM = 120

Hence, the smallest number of each type will be 120.

The base of a triangular prism has an area of 18 square inches . If the height of the prism is 4.5 inches then what is the volum

Nady [450]

Answer:

The volume for the triangular prism is 40.5 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The base of a triangular prism has an area of 18 square inches .

And the height is 4.5 inches.

Now, to get the triangular prism volume.

The base area = 18 square inches.

Height = 4.5 inches.

Now, to get the volume of prism we put formula:

$Volume=\frac{1}{2} \times base\ area\times height\\\\Volume=\frac{1}{2} \times 18\times 4.5\\\\Volume=40.5\ cubic\ inches.$

Therefore, the volume for the triangular prism is 40.5 cubic inches.

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5x - 15 dollars = x - 20 Add 15 to both sides.

1.5x - 15 + 15 = x - 20 + 15

1.5x = x - 5 They will never coincide.

1.5x-x = - 5

0.5x = - 5 Multiply by 2

x = - 10

I would check your question.
