To determine the number of cubes he needs to fill the box (this is assuming the cubes are 1 in cubes, he would need to calculate the volume of the box. To find the volume he would multiply the length by the width by the height. This would be 5 in x 6 in x 7 in. The volume is 210 cubic inches, so he could fill it with 210 one inch cubes.
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Triangle A is attached in the image below.
The base of triangle A is 3 units and its height is 3 units. The area of a triangle is given as:
Area = (1/2) × base × height
Area of triangle A = (1/2) × base × height = (1/2) × 3 × 3 = 4.5 unit²
Area of the scaled copy = 72 unit²
Ratio of area = Area of the scaled copy / Area of triangle A = 72 unit² / 4.5 unit² = 16
Hence the scaled copy area is 16 times larger than that of triangle A.
b) For the scaled copy:
Area of the scaled copy = (1/2) × base × height = 72 unit²
base × height = 144
Since the base and height are equal
base² = 144
base = 12, also height = 12
Base of scaled copy = 12 = 4 × base of triangle A
Therefore the scale factor used is 4

I hope this helps. good luck
double every 6 months
in 6 months there would be 250*2 = 500 crickets
in 1 year there would be 500*2 = 1000 crickets
in 1.5 years there would be 1000 *2 = 2000 crickets
in 2 years there would be 2000 *2 = 4000 crickets
