Answer: 12 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of slices in a cake = 8 slices

Number of cups of icing used by each slice = 1/3

Number of cups of icing for each cake will then be:

= 1/3 × 8

= 8/3

= 2 2/3 cups of icing

If she plans to bake 4 1/2 cakes, the number of cups of icing will she use will be:

= 4 1/2 × 2 2/3

= 9/2 × 8/3

= 72/6

= 12 cups of icing

Is there a dilation that maps shape I onto shape II? If so, what is the scale factor, and is it an enlargement or a reduction?
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Enlargement.

Scale Factor: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use points to find the enlargement. Typically, you will use all the points.

A(1 , 1) ⇒ A'(3 , 3)

B(2 , 1) ⇒ B'(6 , 3)

C(1 , 2) ⇒ C'(3 , 6)

D(2 , 2) ⇒ D'(6 , 6)

To find the scale factor, simply divide the Point' with the original Point. Use any number.

A'(3 , 3)/(A(1 , 1)) = 3

B'(6 , 3)/(B(2 , 1)) = 3

C'(3 , 6)/(C(1 , 2)) = 3

D'(6 , 6)/(D(2 , 2)) = 3

Your scale factor is 3.
