How does scale factor change the area?

Mathematics
1 answer:
morpeh [17]4 years ago
5 0

Answer: in summary, a scale factor is simply a number that multiplies the dimensions of a shape. ... If the scale factor is three, then the perimeter of the new object will be three times the original perimeter. The area of a scaled object will be equal to the scale factor squared.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, if you had a triangle with a base measuring 6 units, and a height measuring 3 units, the area would be 9 square units. If we scale it by 1/3, the triangle's base is 2 units, the height is 1 unit, and the area is 1 square unit. The dimensions were scaled by 1/3, but the area was scaled by 1/9 (1/3 * 1/3).

Answer:

Down the left-hand column, the pattern is counting by 5's. Therefore, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25. Down the right-hand column, the pattern is counting by 4's. Therefore, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20. Thus, the ratios are:

5:4

10:8

15:12

20:16

25:20

In other words, the first line (5:4) is the base ratio. The second line multiplies the original values by 2, the third line by 3, the fourth line by 4, and the fifth line by 5.

Cost of 12 notebooks = $9

Ratio of number of notebooks to its price

= 12:9

= 4:3 <em>(because we reduced it to the simplest form by dividing both numerator and denominator by 3)</em>

Let the cost of 8 notebooks be x.

Then, 8:x = 4:3

=> 8/x = 4/3

=> (8×3)/4 = x

=> 24/4 = x

=> 6 = x

So, the cost of 8 notebooks is $6.
