The scale factor for two similar rectangles is 3. if the area of the smaller rectangle is 8 m2, what is the area
of the larger rectangle?
o24m2
o 192m2
o 72m2
o 108m2

SF=3

a=area

a of small rectangle=8 m^2

a of large rectangle= x m^2

small--->large

small*SF=large

8*3=24

Thus, the area of the larger rectangle is 24 m^2

72m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

I got it right on my test

answer:   b

step-by-step explanation:

x2 = 16

x can not be a negative number because 16 is positive

the only answer would be positive 8
