Answer: b= 3; 9= 18

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the length of the triangles’ base to find the scale factor.

15/5 = 3.

now that we know the scale factor, just use it to determine b and a.

to find a, multiply 6 by the scale factor because the bigger triangle was scaled up

6x3=18 a=18.

to find b, divide 9 by the scale factor because the smaller triangle is being scaled down by 3 compared to the bigger one.

9/3=3 b=3.

you should have your answer by now.

Homework mean x 10%: (80+100+90)/3 x 0.1 = 90 x 0.1 = 9

Quiz mean x 25%: (84+90+72)/3 x 0.25 = 20.5

Test mean x 45%: (64+72)/2 x 0.45 = 30.6

Sum of means/percentage of grade: 9 + 20.5 + 30.6 = 60.1/.8 = 75.125
