<h2>
Dilations and Scale Factors</h2>
When we're solving with scale factors, we either divide or multiply.
If the shape becomes larger, we multiply to get the new length.
If the shape becomes smaller, we divide to get the new length.
<h2>Solving the Question</h2>
We're given:
- Original side length is 2.5 units
- Scale factor = 6
Because the shape becomes larger, we have to multiply the original side length by the scale factor, 6, to get the new side length.
2.5 x 6 = 15
Therefore, the missing side length is 15 units.
<h2>Answer</h2>
15 units
Answer:
a = 84/14
Step-by-step explanation:
The next step you would divide by 14 to get a=6 so I think the program wants you to input a = 84/14
B) because if you round your numbers, -18 1/4 is -18 and 2 2/3 rounds up to positive 3
