17. A preschool has a rectangular field and a rectangular playground that are similar in shape. Each
dimension of the field is 3.2 times the corresponding dimension of the playground. Which statement
is true?
A. The area of the field is 6.4 times the area of the playground.
B. The area of the field is 10.24 times the area of the playground.
C. The perimeter of the field is 6.4 times the perimeter of the playground.
D. The perimeter of the field is 10.24 times the perimeter of the playground.

B. The area of the field is 10.24 times the area of the playground.

Explanation:

First thing to note is that the field and playground are rectangular

Secondly is that the dimension of the field is 3.2 times the corresponding dimension of the playground

Dimension of playground = P

Dimension of field = F = 3.2P

Hence area of rectangle = L x B

Area of the field = (3.2 x 3.2) x Area of playground

Area of field = 10.4 times the area of the playground.

B. The area of the field is 10.24 times the area of the playground.

Explanation:

I just multiplied 3.2 x 3.2 and it gave me 10.24.

I also got this question correct on my test :)

managing the colonial war effort while also forcing for and moving towards america's independence was the major agenda of the debate in course at the second continental congress. the delegates at the congress also adopted the united states declaration of independence, in so doing acting as the ''de facto'' national government of what later became the united states of america

the correct answer is individualism and exchange. at this stage, children begin to question the rules, because they can see that there is more than one side to them. different individuals have different viewpoints. they won't be able to reach this stage because of ignorance, a lack of ethics or personal biases. that is because people with that characteristiscs are not able to distinguish what is good or what is bad and they can't pursue their individual interests.
