Math question,, will reward 10 points : )

Answer

B=36.

Explanation

L.s.f=linear scale factor.

A.s.f=area scale factor.

L.s.f=length of prism 1/length of prism 2

L.s.f=3/8.

let area or prism 1=x

A.s.f=(L.s.f)^2

A.s.f=(3/8)^2

=9/64

9/64=x/256

x=(9×256)÷64

=36.

2x^2+5x+17

your welcome. : )

multiplication is multiplication.   it might feel harder depending on what level of math you are in, but generally it will be the same old stuff, while implementing some new concepts and methods of solving work.
