Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle ABC with vertices A(0, 0), B(0, 4), and C(6, 0) is dilated to form a triangle A'B'C' with vertices A′(0, 0), B′(0, 10), and C′(15, 0). If the center of dilation is point A or A' (the origin), then
Since
then the scale factor of the dilation is
Answer:
1,350 meters per min
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Mr. Castelli covers 125 miles in 2.5 hours, the average speed = .
In miles per hr, average speed = .
Converting 50 miles/hr to km per hr:
If 1 miles = 1.62 km (unit conversion)
50 miles = 50*1.62 = 81 km/hr
Converting 81 km/hr to meters per hr:
1 km = 1,000 m (unit conversion)
81 km = 81*1,000 = 81,000 m/hr
Converting 81,000 m/hr to meters per minutes:
60 mins = 1 hr
Therefore, average speed =
Average driving speed of Mr Castelli in meters per minute = 1,350 meters per minute.
