A trapezoid with area 55 square units is dilated by a scale factor of k. If k is equal to 2/3, find the area of the image.
1 answer:
Answer as a fraction = 220/9
Answer in decimal form = 24.44 approximately
=======================================================
Explanation:
The linear scale factor is k = 2/3.
The area scale factor is k^2 = (2/3)^2 = 4/9
We'll multiply the old area (55) by the area scale factor (4/9) to get the area of the smaller image.
55*(4/9) = 220/9 = 24.44 approximately
