4)simplify
Answer:
the options are missing, so I looked for a similar question:
- 4 inches by 3 inches
- 3 inches by 1 inch
- 6 inches by 2 inches
the correct options are:
3 inches by 1 inch
6 inches by 2 inches
A scaled copy means that the values of rectangle A are related to the value of rectangle B by a scaling factor. In this case, the scaling factor is 3:1. This means that for every 3 inches in rectangle A, you will have 1 inch in rectangle B.
E.g. imagine that instead of making the rectangle smaller, you would make it larger. Using the same scale 3:1, rectangle B could be 30 inches by 10 inches, or 600 inches by 200 inches.
So we know the tank already has 5 gallons and we need 9. This means we need 4 more gallons in order to fill up the tank.
If 1/4 gallon is being filled per minute we need to find out how many 1/4 gallons makes up 4 gallons in total.
4 of the 1/4 gallons makes up 1 whole gallon. So since we need 4 whole gallons we would need 16 of the 1/4 gallons.
This means that it will take 16 minutes for the tank to hold 9 gallons of water.
