The Nature's Preserves jam factory is buying supplies for next month. They make 2 flavors of strawberry jam: Classic Strawberry and Tropical Strawberry. Both flavors use 10 pounds of fresh strawberries in every 16-jar batch. The factory plans to make 4,000 jars of Classic Strawberry jam and 2,400 jars of Tropical Strawberry jam next month. How many tons of strawberries should they order?

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl

yes they are the same
