Answer: 16

Step-by-step explanation:

an area is always calculated by multiplying 2 dimensions.

when changing the dimensions, then the change factors for EACH dimension go into the calculation too.

therefore, when both dimensions of an area are enlarged 4 times, then the area is enlarged 4×4 = 16 times.

this just propagates to the whole surface area of an object, as each individual area of the overall surface area is enlarged by the same factor. and so, the sum of all the individual areas (= altogether the surface area of the object) is also enlarged in total by the same factor.

just think

16×a + 16×b + 16×c ... = 16×(a+b+c+...)

What is the area? Bit confused on this one.

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

x² + 8x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

see

the length of the entire rectangle = x + 6

breadth of the entire rectangle = x + 2

area of a rectangle = length × breadth

= (x + 6)(x + 2)

= x² + 8x + 12

which is the required polynomial in standard form

Sarah has a shoebox that has a base that is 12 inches x 10 inches. The shoe box is 7.5 inches tall. Sarah lost the top to the bo

katrin2010 [14]

450

10*12= 120 the bottom of the box
10*7.5= 75 one side
75*2= 150 two sides
12*7.5= 90 another side
90*2= 180 two other sides
120+150+180 = 450

Hope this helped :)

Select the correct answer. A triangle with vertices at A(0, 0), B(0, 4), and C(6, 0) is dilated to yield a triangle with vertice

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

* The scale factor of the dilation is 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about dilation

- A dilation is a transformation that changes the size of a figure.

- It can become larger or smaller, but the shape of the

figure does not change.

- The scale factor, measures how much larger or smaller

the image will be

- If the scale factor greater than 1, then the image will be larger

- If the scale factor between 0 and 1, then the image will be smaller

* In the problem

- The vertices of the triangle is A (0 , 0) , B (0 , 4) , C (6 , 0)

and its image A' is (0 , 0) , (0 , 10) , (15 , 0)

∵ 10 ÷ 4 = 2.5

∵ 15 ÷ 6 = 2.5

∴ The scale factor is 2.5

∵ 2.5 > 1

∴ The image of the triangle will be larger

* The scale factor is 2.5
