<h3>Given</h3>

(a) 8 + |x -2| = 8

(b) |x + 1| +5 = 2

(c) 4|x - 3|= -16

(d) 3|x +10| = 0

<h3>Find</h3>

x

<h3>Solution</h3>

(a) |x -2| = 0 . . . . . subtract 8

... x -2 = 0 . . . . . . . only one solution, because -0 = 0

... x = 2

(b) |x +1| = -3 . . . . subtract 5. No solution. (an absolute value cannot be negative)

(c) No solution. (see (b))

(d) |x +10| = 0 . . . . divide by 3

... x +10 = 0 . . . . . . one solution. (see (a))

... x = -10

We know that<span>
<span>Figures can be proven similar if one, or more, similarity transformations (reflections, translations, rotations, dilations) can be found that map one figure onto another. 
In this problem to prove circle 1 and circle 2 are similar, a translation and a scale factor (from a dilation) will be found to map one circle onto another.

we have that</span>
<span> Circle 1 is centered at (5,8) and has a radius of 8 centimeters
 Circle 2 is centered at (1,-2) and has a radius of 4 centimeters
</span>
step 1
<span>Move the center of the circle 1 onto the center of the circle 2
the transformation has the following rule</span>
(x,y)--------> (x-4,y-10)
so
(5,8)------> (5-4,8-10)-----> (1,-2)
so
center circle 1 is now equal to center circle 2 
<span>The circles are now concentric (they have the same center)
</span>
step 2
<span>A dilation is needed to decrease the size of circle 1 to coincide with circle 2
</span>
scale factor=radius circle 2/radius circle 1-----> 4/8----> 0.5

radius circle 1 will be=8*scale factor-----> 8*0.5-----> 4 cm
radius circle 1 is now equal to radius circle 2 

<span>A translation, followed by a dilation will map one circle onto the other, thus proving that the circles are similar

the answer is
</span>
</span>The circles are similar because you can translate Circle 1 using the transformation rule (x-4,y-10) and then dilate it using a scale factor of (0.5)

Vlad spent 20 minutes on his history homework and then completely solved x math problems that each took 2 minutes to complete. W
Veronika [31]
To solve you first need to pick out the most important information,
~Spent 20 minutes 
~Each prob takes 2 minutes
Lets have y be the total time spent, and x the number of probs
(y/2) = x
Hope this helped!! ^-^
