Answer:
f(-2) = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
f(x) = 3x² - 4x + 1
f(-2) is x = -2
Step 2: Substitute and Evaluate
f(-2) = 3(-2)² - 4(-2) + 1
f(-2) = 3(4) + 8 + 1
f(-2) = 12 + 9
f(-2) = 21
The area of the original polygon is:
A = 225 m ^ 2
The similar polygon area is:
A '= (k ^ 2) * (A)
Substituting values:
3 * 225 = (k ^ 2) * (225)
Clearing k we have:
k ^ 2 = 3
k = (3) ^ (1/3)
Answer:
The length of each side increased by:
k = (3) ^ (1/3)
-3.143 is equivalent to -(3143/1000)
