The reactangle has an area of x.
So that means two numbers multiplied to each other equal to x. We can just think of itwo numbers that when multiplied equal to x as a and b.
So that means the side lengths are <u />a and b. And ab = x (will be using this right next).
And it was multiplied by some scale factor that made the new area 9x. So if the scale factor is y, then:




y can not equal to -3, because the length of a side of any polygon can never be negative.
So the dilation is 3.And so if the dimension is 5 by 8.
Then the area is

And so then

And then after the dilation, it would be

We could check it another way too. Since we said the scale factor is 3, then:

So
basically
15 by 24 is the new dimensions :)
We assume the probability on each side is equally probable with probability 1/5.
sum=4 has outcomes:{1,4; 2,3; 3,2; 4,1} 4 possible outcomes
sum=8 has outcomes:{3,5; 4,4; 5,3} 3 possible outcomes.
Total possible outcomes = 5*5=25
there probability of rolling a sum of 4 or 8, by the law of addition, equals
4/25+3/25=7/25
Note: a regular (i.e. fully symmetric) five-sided solid does not exist, so there has to be asymmetry among the probabilities of the five possible outcomes. In addition, it does not have a "top" face, so that makes rolling a five-sided solid a little more difficult to visualize.
4x^2 + 16x-2= 5x
Minus 16x over
4x2-2= -11x
Add 11x over
4x^2 +11x -2
Use quadratic formula x= 2.9
I’m not sure here. I tried my best. Hope it helps!
