<h2>
Dilations and Scale Factors</h2>
When we're solving with scale factors, we either divide or multiply.
If the shape becomes larger, we multiply to get the new length.
If the shape becomes smaller, we divide to get the new length.
<h2>Solving the Question</h2>
We're given:
- Original side length is 2.5 units
- Scale factor = 6
Because the shape becomes larger, we have to multiply the original side length by the scale factor, 6, to get the new side length.
2.5 x 6 = 15
Therefore, the missing side length is 15 units.
<h2>Answer</h2>
15 units
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
i think it might be-3 because a negative and a negative equals a positive
Answer:
<em>Student 2 is incorrect because he didn't use the formula properly</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential function is often used to model natural growing or decaying processes, where the change is proportional to the actual quantity.
An exponential decaying function is expressed as:

Where:
C(t) is the actual value of the function at time t
Co is the initial value of C at t=0
r is the decaying rate, expressed in decimal
The initial value of the item is Co=$1000, the rate of decay is r=40%=0.4, and the time is t=3 years.
Substituting into the formula:


C(3)=$216
Student 2 is incorrect because he didn't use the formula properly
Answer:
C. 3,960
Step-by-step explanation:
∆ADB ~ ∆EDC. Therefore,

(substitution)
Solve for x
Cross multiply
5x - 3x = 7,920
2x = 7,920
x = 7,920/2
x = 3,960 meters
Answer:
yes because any input of time results in only one output of altitude
yes because the airplane increases and decreases in altitude at the same rate
pick either one :>
