942 A Examine the 1 1 3 solid belowB If this shape is enlarged by a linear scale factor of 2 how wide will the new shape be How tall How deepC How many of the 1 class=


Answer :

Solution

(A). We are given a 1 x 1 x 3 solid.

(B). If it is enlarged by a scale factor of 2, The new dimension will be 2 x 2 x 6

(C). Here we will find the surface Area of the New divided by the surface area of the former

The number (n) needed is

[tex]\begin{gathered} n=\frac{2\left(LB+LH+BH\right)}{2\left(lb+lh+bh\right?} \\ n=\frac{LB+LH+BH}{lb+lh+bh} \\ n=\frac{2\left(2\right)+2\left(6\right)+2\left(6\right)}{1\left(1\right)+1\left(3\right)+1\left(3\right)} \\ n=\frac{4+12+12}{1+3+3} \\ n=\frac{28}{7} \\ n=4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, four 1 x 1 x 3 solids would be needed

(D).

Scale factor = 3

[tex]Volume=3^3=27[/tex]

The volume would be 27 times larger
