Answer:

New area by scale of 1.5 = 81 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Current area  = 36 in²

Find:

New area by scale of 1.5

Computation:

New area by scale of 1.5 = Current area x (scale factor)²

New area by scale of 1.5 = 36 x (1.5)²

New area by scale of 1.5 = 36 x (2.25)

New area by scale of 1.5 = 81 in²

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the trapezoid shown in the attachment has been enlarged by a scale of 1.5.

We are asked to find the area of the enlarged trapezoid. The area of the original trapezoid is 36 square inches.

Since each side of the trapezoid is enlarged 1.5 times, so the area of new trapezoid would be 2.25 times greater than area of original trapezoid.

The area would be 2.25 times greater because area is product of sum of lengths of parallel sides and height.

Therefore, the area of the enlarged trapezoid would be  and option B is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

A ball is thrown straight up from a rooftop 320 feet high. The formula below describes the ball's height above the ground, h, in feet, t seconds after it was thrown. The ball misses the rooftop on its way down and eventually strikes the ground. How long will it take for the ball to hit the ground? Use this information to provide tick marks with appropriate numbers along the horizontal axis in the figure shown.
