Answer:
Option B. 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The smaller triangle is a dilation of the larger triangle with the center of dilation at (2, -1).
we have to calculate the scale factor of the dilation.
One point of the large triangle is (-4, -1). After dilation it has become (-1, -1) of the smaller one.
If we consider the x coordinates of the point x = -4 has reduced down to -1 therefore scale factor = side of small triangle/side of the large triangle = (2 + 1)/(2 + 4) = 3/6 = 1/2
Therefore Option B. 1/2 is the answer.
6 2/3 = 20/3 = 60/9
4 4/9 = 40/9
60/9 - 40/9 = 20/9 = 2 2/9
The population of the country in 2003 is 302.5 million
<h3>How to determine the population of the country in 2003.</h3>
From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:
Exponential model, A = 302.5e^0.0211t
Where i is the number of years after 2003
In the year 2003, the value of t is 0
i.e. 0 years after 2003
So, we have
A = 302.5e^(0.0211 * 0)
Evaluate the products
A = 302.5 * 1
So, we have the following result
A = 302.5
Hence, the population is 302.5 million
