Arectangle with an area of 5/8 ft² is dilated by a factor of 8. what is the area of the dilated rectangle?

The area of the dilated rectangle is equal to

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to scale factor squared

Let

z-----> the scale factor

x------> the area of the dilated rectangle

y------> the area of the original rectangle

we have

------> is an enlargement

substitute and solve for x

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

answer:

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this you!

so then what are you asking?
