Answer:

The option that describe the effect of the change is;

  • The perimeter is multiplied by 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters from the question are;

The (scale) factor by which the base and the height of the triangle are multiplied = 5/4

By the constant proportion of their sides, the triangle before and the triangle obtained after the multiplication are similar

Let 'a' and 'b' represent the length of the base and the height of the triangle respectively, we have;

The area of the triangle, A₁ = 1/2 × a × b = a·b/2

With the application of the scale factor of 5/4, we have;

The area of the scaled triangle, A₂ = 1/2 × (5/4) × a × (5/4) × b = (5/4)² × a·b/2

Therefore, the scale factor of the area = (5/4)²

The scale factor of the perimeter = √(The scale facto of area)

∴ The scale factor of the perimeter = √(5/4)² = (5/4)

The scale factor of the perimeter = (5/4)

Therefore, the perimeter of the scaled triangle is obtained by multiplying the perimeter of the initial triangle by (5/4).

Brenda throws a dart at this square-shaped target: Part A: Is the probability of hitting the black circle inside the target clos
Masteriza [31]
Either way.  The probability of hitting the circle is:

P(C)=Area of circle divided by area of square

P(W)=(area of square minus area of circle divided by area of square

P(C)=(πr^2)/s^2

P(W)=(s^2-πr^2)/s^2

...

Okay with know dimensions, r=1 (because r=d/2 and d=2 so r=1), s=11 we have:

P(inside circle)=π/121  (≈0.0259  or 2.6%)

P(outside circel)=(121-π)/121  (≈0.9744 or 97.4%)

Jonathan put ice cream in the freezer, and the ice cream remained frozen.
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

C- Based on the data, this is an example of causation

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because by him putting the ice cream into a freezing area, the ice cream remained frozen. Imagine if he put in in a warm area, it would melt. Hope this helps!

Find the value of this expression if x= -7<br><br> x^2+5/x+1
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

-9

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace x with -7 in the expression:

x^2 + 5 / x + 1

-7^2 + 5 / -7 + 1

49 + 5 / -6

54/-6

simplify the fraction

9/-1 = -9
