A rectangle that is 2 inches by 3 inches has been scaled by a factor of 7. 1. What are the side lengths of the scaled copy?

2. Suppose you want to scale the copy back to its original size. What scale factor should
you use?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rectangle:

Length = 2 in

Width = 3 in

Scale Factor = 7

Solving (a):

The side lengths of the new scale is calculated as follows;

New Lengths = Old Lengths * Scale Factor

Solving (b): To go back to the original length

Given that the initial scale factor is 7;

The new scale factor is the reciprocal of the old factor;

Hence;

the answer to the question is a

step-by-step explanation:

it has the same slope and the same y-intercept.

y + 11 = -7/9(x - 18)

y + 11 =-7/9x + 14

b

y = -7/9x + 3

y-intercept (0, 3)

75 tickets have been sold so far.

step-by-step explanation:

in this question it is clearly mentioned that 45 children's tickets have been sold and this number is 60% of the total tickets sold.

now let's assume the total number of tickets sold be x.

then 60% of x = 45

⇒

⇒ x(.6) = 45

by dividing with .6 on both the sides of the equation

⇒ x = 75

therefore 75 tickets have been sold so far.
