Answer: The required scale factor of the dilation is 4.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the parallelogram FGHJ was dilated and translated to form similar parallelogram F'G'H'J'.

We are to find the scale factor of the dilation.

From the graph, we note that

JH = 2 units and J'H' = 8 units.

We know that

$\textup{Scale factor of dilation}=\dfrac{\textup{length of a side of the dilated figure}}{\textup{length of the correponding side of the original figure}}.$

Therefore, the scale factor of the given dilation is

$S=\dfrac{J'H'}{JH}\\\\\\\Rightarrow S=\dfrac{8}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow S=4.$

Thus, the required scale factor of the dilation is 4.

Which shows a graph of a linear equation in standard form Ax + By = C, where A = 0, B is positive, and C is negative? A coordina

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

A coordinate plane with a horizontal line passing through (negative 4, negative 3), (0, negative 3) and (4, negative 3).

Step-by-step explanation:

Ax + By = C, where A = 0, B is positive, and C is negative

By= C or y= C/B which is negative

Since A is zero and C is negative, the line is parallel to x- axis and has negative value for y, so it is a horizontal line below zero

A coordinate plane with a vertical line passing through (1, negative 4), (1, 0) and (1, 4).

no, the line is horizontal

A coordinate plane with a vertical line passing through (negative 2, negative 4), (negative 2, 0) and (negative 2, 4).

no, the line is horizontal

A coordinate plane with a horizontal line passing through (negative 4, 4), (0, 4) and (negative 4, 4).

no, the y-values should be negative

A coordinate plane with a horizontal line passing through (negative 4, negative 3), (0, negative 3) and (4, negative 3).

yes, this is horizontal line below zero

A raft and a motorboat simultaneously leave from the same point and move down the river. After 2 hours the motorboat turns aroun

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x mph be the speed of motorboat in still water and y mph be the speed of current.

A raft and a motorboat simultaneously leave from the same point and move down the river, then speeds down the river are:

motorboat = x + y mph

raft = y mph

In two hours they will cover:

motorboat = 2(x+y) miles

raft = 2y miles

After 2 hours the motorboat turns around and starts moving towards the raft (against the current), so its speed is now x - y mph.

Let t be the time they move towards each other. In t hours, they cover

motorboat = t(x - y) miles

raft = ty miles

The distance from the starting point to the turning point is the same as the sum of the distances the raft covers and the motorboat covers after turning around, so

$2(x+y)=2y+t(x-y)+ty \\ \\2x+2y=2y+tx-ty+ty\\ \\2x=tx\\ \\t=2\ hours$
