The running trail in the local park is 3.416 miles long. If the park board were planning to extend the trail by 1.34 miles, what would the new length of the running trail be?

4.756 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The running trail in the local park is 3.416 miles long. If the park board were planning to extend the trail by 1.34 miles.

We need to find the new length of the running trial. It is equal to the sum of length of running trail and the extended length. So,

l = 3.416 +1.34

l = 4.756 miles

So, the new length of the running trail be 4.756 miles

what the question so we can you out

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
