Answer:

  (b)  13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The upper vertex would be ...

  3/2(3, 3) = (4.5, 4.5)

and the right vertex would be ...

  3/2(4, 0) = (6, 0).

The base of the larger triangle would be 6, and its height would be 4.5. Then the area is ...

  A = (1/2)bh

  A = (1/2)(6)(4.5) = 13.5 . . . area of dilated triangle
