Answer:

7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The width on the left rectangle is 3

Multiply it by the scale factor (1.5) and we  get the width of the rectangle on the right

3 * 1.5 = 4.5

Then take the length of the rectangle on the left and multiply it by the scale factor

5 (1.5) = 7.5

The length of the rectangle is 7.5

Answer:

7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You really don't have to. Set up a Proportion.

3/4.5 = 5/x            Cross multiply

3*x = 4.5 * 5          Combine the right

3x = 22.5              Divide by 3

3x/3 = 22.5/3       Do the division

x = 7.5

=======================

However, you could use a scale factor of 1.5

The parent shape has a length of 5

This is multiplied by 1.5

New length = Old length * Scale factor.

New length = ????

Old length = 5

Scale factor = 1.5

New length =  1.5 * 5 = 7.5

Please help me with this question look at the image. I will mark the brainiest.
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

  5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is given by the formula ...

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h

The height is found by solving this equation for h:

  2A/(b1 +b2) = h

  h = 2(25.5)/(3.2 +7) = 51/10.2 = 5 . . . . fill in the given values

The height of the trapezoid is 5 feet.

Rewrite the quadratic function in vertex form.<br> Y=3x^2-12x+4
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y=3(x-2)^2-8}

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of an equation of a parabola y = ax² + bx + c:

f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k

(h, k) - vertex

h=\dfrac{-b}{2a},\ k=f(h)

We have the equation:

y=3x^2-12x+4\\\\a=3,\ b=-12,\ c=4

Substitute:

h=\dfrac{-(-12)}{2(3)}=\dfrac{12}{6}=2\\\\k=f(2)=3(2^2)-12(2)+4=3(4)-24+4=12-24+4=-8

Finally:

y=3(x-2)^2+(-8)=3(x-2)^2-8

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (-5, 19) and (5.13).
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

y=-3/5x+16

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(13-19)/(5-(-5))

m=-6/(5+5)

m=-6/10

simplify

m=-3/5

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-19=-3/5(x-(-5))

y-19=-3/5(x+5)

y=-3/5x-15/5+19

y=-3/5x-3+19

y=-3/5x+16
