Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side of the triangle be a and that of the new one be a'.

a'/a = 3/1      Insert the value of a

a'/6 = 3        Multiply each side by 6

  a' = 18

The measure of a side of the new triangle is 18.

Answer: 18 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • When a segment 'm' is dilated by a scale factor 'k' , then the measure of new dilated segment will be 'km'  [i.e. New side length =scale factor is multiplied to the original side-length].

Given : An equilateral triangle is dilated by a scale factor of 3.

[Note an equilateral triangle has all its side-lengths are equal.]

Side-length of the original triangle = 6 units

Then, the measure of a side of the new triangle = Scale factor x Original side-length

= 3 x 6 = 18 units

Hence, the measure of a side of the new triangle = 18 units.

The value of h(t) when t=\frac{15}{32} is 10.02.

Solution:

Given function h(t)=-16t^2+15t+6.5

To find the value of h(t) when t=\frac{15}{32}:

h(t)=-16t^2+15t+6.5

Substitute t=\frac{15}{32} in the given function.

$h\left(\frac{15}{32} \right)=-16\left(\frac{15}{32} \right)^2+15\left(\frac{15}{32} \right)+6.5

            $=-16\left(\frac{225}{1024} \right)+15\left(\frac{15}{32} \right)+6.5

Now multiply the common terms into inside the bracket.

           $=-\left(\frac{3600}{1024} \right)+\left(\frac{225}{32} \right)+6.5

Now, in the first term, the numerator and denominator both have common factor 16. So reduce the first term into the lowest term.

          $=-\left(\frac{225}{64} \right)+\left(\frac{225}{32} \right)+6.5

To make the denominator same, take LCM of the denominators.

LCM of 64 and 32 = 64

        $=-\left(\frac{225}{64} \right)+\left(\frac{225\times2}{32\times2} \right)+6.5\times\frac{64}{64}

        $=-\frac{225}{64} +\frac{450}{64}+\frac{416}{64}

        $=\frac{-225+450+416}{64}

       $=\frac{641}{64}

       = 10.02

$h\left(\frac{15}{32} \right)=10.02

Hence the value of h(t) when t=\frac{15}{32} is 10.02.
