Answer:

16 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\triangle CAE -- Bigger Triangle

\triangle CBD -- Smaller Triangle

k = \frac{4}{3} --- Scale factor

Area of CBD = 9

Required

Determine the area of CAE

The area of triangle CBD is:

A_1 = \frac{1}{2}bh

\frac{1}{2}bh = 9

The area of CAE is:

A_2 = \frac{1}{2}BH

Where:

B = \frac{4}{3}b and

H = \frac{4}{3}h

The above values is the dimension of the larger triangle (after dilation).

So, we have:

A_2 = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{4}{3}b * \frac{4}{3} * h

A_2 = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{4}{3} * \frac{4}{3} *b* h

A_2 = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{16}{9}  *b* h

Re-order

A_2 = \frac{16}{9}*\frac{1}{2}* b* h

A_2 = \frac{16}{9}*\frac{1}{2}bh

Recall that:

\frac{1}{2}bh = 9

A_2 = \frac{16}{9}*9

A_2 = 16

Hence, the area is 16 cm^2

Answer:

0ft and 60ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached function

Required

Determine the valid values of the domain of the function

To do this, we simply consider the starting point and the end point of the trajectory on the x-axis (i.e. the horizontal distance).

From the attached graph, the horizontal distance starts from 0 and ends at 180.

This implies that the domain is: 0 \le x \le 180

From the options, the values that fall in this bracket are 0ft and 60ft
