The area of the triangle will then be 9 times as great.
The formula of the area of a triangle is 1/2bh, so if the base has been tripled and the height has been tripled, you're essentially multiplying 3 to the original equation twice (3 x 3 = 9).
Okay here's an example so if we have 2, 3/2*1/2 we convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions. So in order to solve a mixed number you add the denominator, numerator and whole to get 7/2*1.2
So Multiple
7/2*1/2
Refine the fractions
7/2*2
Multiple the numbers 2*2=4 to get
7/4
and that equals 1, 3/4
12x > 18x - 27 - 15
12x > 18x - 42
12x - 18x > -42
-6x > -42
x < -42/-6
two negatives make a positive so now its x < 42/6
Lastly divide 42/6 so it can equal 7
Answer: X < 7.
