The equation 5x−4y=24 is dilated by a scale factor of 0.2 centered at the origin. What is the equation of the image of the line?

A)y=1.5x−6.0B)y=1.25x−4.8C)y=0.25x−6.0D)y=1.25x-1.2

we are given the following line equation:

5x-4y=24

First, we will solve for "y", first by subtracting "5x" on both sides:

-4y=24-5x

Now we divide both sides by -4

y=-6+1.25x

Now we are told that a dilation by a factor of 0.2 occurs. Since dilation doesn't affect the slope of lines, this means that the equation of the image line has the same slope, that is 1.25. The point that will be affected is the y-intercept, that is (0,-6). Since the image of a point after dilation is the following:

(x^{\prime},y^{\prime})=(kx,ky)

Applying this to the y-intercept point we get:

(x^{\prime},y^{\prime})=(0,(0.2)(-6))=(0,-1.2)

Therefore, the equation of the line image is:

y=-1.2+1.25x

Valentina has a tray where she keeps all of her important papers. the tray is in the shape of a rectangular prism with no top. a
mel-nik [20]

The volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 12 inches, width of 10 inches, and height of 2.5 inches is 300 cubic inches

<h3>Volume of a rectangular prism</h3>
  • Length= 12 inches
  • Width = 10 inches
  • Height = 2.5 inches

Volume of a rectangular prism = length × width × height

= (12 × 10 × 2.5) inches

= 300 inches

Andrews [41]

Answer:

I believe your rule would be (The rule is add 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have -9 and you get to -6 that means you added an interval of 3

-9,-6,-3,0,3 is how it would continue

Can someone help me with this please?

29.) This is simply interpreting the linear function.
The function:
96+2.1x
a.) The 96 is what you start with from the beginning. So, we know Rachel weighed 96 ounces when she was born.
b.) Again, interpretation. The 2.1 is the slope, or the change in the line. So we know that Rachel gains 2.1 ounces each day.
30.) For this one, you just have to plug 9 into the equation for x.
