Max creates a lavender dye by mixing 3 ounces of blue with half a cup of red dye. He wants to know how much red dye he needs to use with 54 ounces of blue dye?

72

Step-by-step explanation:

1 cup = 8 ounces

0.5 cup = 4

3:4

54:72

9 Cups

Step-by-step explanation:

54/3 = 18

*18 is how many times he must do the mixture

18x .5 = 9

*18 time half a cup is 9 cups

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
