The value of x when the line segment st is dilated to create line s't' about point q is 2.5 units

<h3>How to determine the value of x?</h3>

The given parameters are:

qs = 2

qt = 1.2

tt' = 1.5

ss' = x

To calculate the value of x, we make use of the following equivalent ratio

ss' : qs = tt' : qt

So, we have:

x : 2 = 1.5 : 1.2

Express as fractions

x/2 = 1.5/1.2

Multiply both sides by 2

x = 2 * 1.5/1.2

Evaluate the product

x = 2.5

Hence, the value of x is 2.5 units

Factor each expression 30+10x-40y
Sergio039 [100]
Hello!

To factor you find the biggest number they can be divided by

The biggest number that all the number can be divided by is 10

You put that outside parenthesis

10()

Divide the expression by 10

3 + x - 4y

Put the two together

10(3 + x + 4y)

Hope this helps!
