 the correct question Part 1) is
<span>A school photo has dimensions of 2 1/4 inches by 2 3/4 inches. What are the dimensions of the school photo if it is enlarged by a scale factor of 7?

we know that
2 1/4 in-------> (2*4+1)/4----> 9/4 in
2 3/4 in-----> (2*4+3)/4-----> 11/4 in

if the scale factor=7
the dimensions of the school photo are
(9/4)*7-----> 63/4 in-----> 15 3/4 in
(11/4)*7----> 77/4 in-----> 19 1/4 in

the answer Part 1) is
</span>the dimensions of the school photo are
15 3/4 in x 19 1/4 in

Part 2) <span>Stephanie drew a picture of her house with her prize rosebush in the front. In her picture, she drew the rosebush 1.5 centimeters tall, and she drew the house 7.5 centimeters tall.

If her rosebush is really 0.75 meter tall and she made her drawing to scale, what scale did she use?

scale factor=measure in the drawing/measure in the actual
scale factor=1.5 cm/0.75 m-----> 2 cm/m
that means
2 cm in the drawing is equal to 1 meter in the actual

if the house in the drawing  is 7.5 cm tall
the house in the actual is 7.5/2----> 3.75 m

the answer Part 2) is 
the scale is 2 cm/meters

Part 3)</span><span>A photo of a painting has a scale of 3 inches = 2 feet. If the photo is 7.5 inches long, how many feet long is the painting?

we know that
</span>
scale factor=measure in the photo/measure in the painting
measure in the painting=measure in the photo/scale factor
scale factor=3/2---> 1.5 in/ft
measure in the photo=7.5 in

measure in the painting=7.5/1.5----> 5 ft

the answer part 3) is
the painting is 5 ft long

cestrela7 [59]

Answer: the system of equations are

3x + 2y = 170

4x + 6y = 360

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price of a child's ticket in dollars.

Let y represent the price of an adult's ticket in dollars.

The Brown family paid 170 for 3 children and 2 adults. This would be expressed as

3x + 2y = 170

The Peckham family paid 360 for 4 children and 6 adults. This would be expressed as

4x + 6y = 360

The combined area of two squares is 45 square centimeters. Each side of one square is twice as long as a side of the other squar
Levart [38]
Let the side of  one square be x.    Area = x*x = x²

Then the side of other square  would be 2x ,   Area = 2x*2x = 4x²

Combined area = x² + 4x²  = 5x²

This combined area = 45 cm²

Therefore  5x²  = 45   Divide both sides by 5
                  x²  =  45/5
                  x²  = 9        Take square root of both sides
                  x   =  √9
                  x  = 3

Length of larger square is 2x  = 2*3 = 6 cm
Length of larger square = 6cm
