c. 2y = -x - 4
e. x + 2y = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope. Therefore, the lines that will be parallel to the given line on the graph would have the same slope as the line of the graph.
First, find the slope of the line on the graph:
Use the coordinates of any two points on the line. Let's use (-4, 0) and (0, -2)
Slope of the line on the graph is -½.
Check each given line equation, ensure they are in the slope-intercept form and find out if the value of their slope is the same as -½.
Slope-intercept form is given as y = mx + b, where, m = slope.
Option 1: y = -½x
The slope of this line is -½, therefore it is parallel to the line on the graph.
Option 2: y = -½x + 3
The slope of this line is also -½, therefore it is parallel to the line on the graph.
Option 3: 2y = -x - 4
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
y = -x/2 - 4/2
y = -½x - 2
The slope of this line is -½, therefore it is parallel to the line on the graph.
Option 4: y = 2x - 5.
The slope of this line is 2, therefore it is NOT parallel to the line on the graph.
Option 5: x + 2y = 8
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
2y = 8 - x
y = 8/2 - x/2
y = 4 - ½x
The slope of this line is -½, therefore it is parallel to the line on the graph.
A dilation is a transformation 
, with center O and a scale factor of k that is not zero, that maps O to itself and any other point P to P'.
The center O is a fixed point, P' is the image of P, points O, P and P' are on the same line.
In a dilation of
, the scale factor, 
is mapping the original figure to the image in such a way that the
distances from O to the vertices of the image are half the distances
from O to the original figure. Also the size of the image is half the
size of the original figure.
Therefore, <span>If is a dilation of △ABC, the truth about the image △A'B'C'</span> are:
<span>AB is parallel to A'B'.
The distance from A' to the origin is half the distance from A to the origin.</span>
In a dilation of
Therefore, <span>If
<span>AB is parallel to A'B'.
The distance from A' to the origin is half the distance from A to the origin.</span>
