The area of a triangle is proportional to the square of the scale factor.
Since the scale factor is 7, the area of triangle M'N'O' will be (7^2) times the area of triangle MNO.
Therefore, the area of triangle M'N'O' is 49x square units.
Triangle MNO is dilated by a scale factor of 7 to create triangle M'N'O'.
8The area of triangle MNO is x square units.
What is the area in square units of triangle M'N'O'?

The correct answer is D.
The area of triangle M'N'O' is 8 times the area of triangle MNO, which is 8x square units.
The area of triangle M'N'O' is 8 times the area of triangle MNO, which is 8x square units.

Apologies for the mistake in my previous response. You are correct. The area of triangle M'N'O' will be (7/8)^2 times the area of triangle MNO.
Therefore, the correct answer is (7/8)^2x square units.
Therefore, the correct answer is (7/8)^2x square units.
