Answer:
Option (2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a prism A (preimage) = 27 cubic units
Factor of dilation of the sides of this prism (image) = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Volume scale factor of these prisms = [tex]\frac{\text{Volume of image}}{\text{Volume of preimage}}[/tex]
Since, Volume scale factor = (Scale factor of dilation of the sides)³
= [tex](\frac{1}{3})^3[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{9}[/tex]
Now from the formula of volume scale factor,
[tex]\frac{1}{9}=\frac{\text{Volume of image}}{\text{Volume of preimage}}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{9}=\frac{\text{Volume of image}}{27}[/tex]
Volume of the image prism = [tex]\frac{27}{9}[/tex] = 3 cubic units
Therefore, Option (2) will be the answer.
