Answer:

<u>The area of the larger triangle is 315 inches²</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review all the information provided for answering the questions properly:

Pre-image triangle has a base of 7 inches and a height of 10 inches

Scale used : Factor of 3

2. What is the area of the larger triangle??

For calculating the area of the larger triangle, we use the scale this way:

Base = 7 inches * 3

21 inches

Height = 10 inches * 3

30 inches

Area of the larger triangle = 1/2 (Base * Height)

Area of the larger triangle = 1/2 (21 * 30)

<u>Area of the larger triangle = 630/2 = 315 inches²</u>

Answer: $20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the cost of a ticket at Haynes

Let 'y' be the cost of a ticket at Valley

Since the total cost from both schools are the same, we can write it as:

60x=80y

Since the cost of tickets at Valley was $5 less than Haynes, we can write it as:

y=x-5

Now we have two equations, we can use to substitute into the other expression:

60x=80y

60x=80(x-5) we substitute y in this equation with the other equation

60x=80x-400

-20x =-400

x = 20

Therefore the cost of the ticket at Haynes is $20 and the cost of the ticket at Valley is $15.

Dovator [93]
1 inch= 12 miles


Multiply 6 1/2 inches by total number of miles per 1 inch (12).

= 6 1/2 * 12
convert to improper fraction

= 13/2 * 12
multiply numerators

= (13*12)/2
multiply in parentheses

= 156/2
divide

= 78 miles


ANSWER: (A) 78 miles

Hope this helps! :)
