Answer:

C. AB/XY = AC/XZ

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation:

A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size. The original figure either stretches or shrinks by a certain factor.

In the problem, the dilation is by a factor of 5 and we can see that ABC shrinks to form XYZ.

So, ABC and XYZ are similar triangles which means that the ratio of their corresponding sides will be equal:

AB/XY = AC/XZ = BC/YZ = 5

Answer with explanation:

When ΔABC is dilated by a Scale factor of 5 we will get ΔX Y Z.

Pre-Image = ΔABC

Image = ΔX Y Z

When a triangle is dilated , then the two Triangles that is Original ΔABC and Triangle after dilation ΔX Y Z will be Similar.

⇒Similar triangles has Corresponding sides proportional as well as Corresponding  Angles are congruent.

≡Corresponding congruent Angles are

→∠A=∠X

→∠B=∠Y

→∠C=∠Z

≡Corresponding congruent Sides are

     \frac{AB}{XY}=\frac{AC}{XZ}=\frac{BC}{YZ}

The Proportionality statement which proves two triangles are Similar

Option B

 \frac{AB}{XY}=\frac{AC}{XZ}

Which expression is equivalent to find f(0)<br> f(x) = -9 (3) ^x<br> f(0)=
ankoles [38]

x = 0

f(x) = -9(3)^0

Anything to the power of 0 is 1,

f(x) = -9(1)

f(x) = -9

The answer is -9

Hope this was useful :)

Question 11 options:
9966 [12]

Answer:

x = 12

length = 4 cm

width = 20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

a = lw

Plug in the givens

80 = (x - 8)(x + 8)

Multiply

80 = x^2 - 64

Add 64 to both sides

144 = x^2

Take the square root of both sides

x = ±12

(The negative root is extraneous since the dimensions can not be negative)

x = 12

length = x - 8 = 4 cm

width = x + 8 = 20 cm

Basher collected 4 1/3 basket of peaches and Orchard if each basket holds 21
miv72 [106K]
To do this you times 3 by 4 and add it on to the numerator of the fraction, to turn it into a top heavy fraction:
3*4 = 12
1+12/3 = 13/3

Then you multiply the numerator by 21 to work out what 21 times the fraction is:
13*21/3 = 273/3

Then you can divide 273 by 3 to get the final answer:
273/3 = 91

He will have 91 peaches overall.
Hope this helps! :)
