3x + 6 = 12
First operation was subtraction (subtracting 6 to leave 3x alone)
Second operation was division (Dividing 3 from 3x to isolare x)

3x + 6 = 12
3x + 6 -(6) = 12 - 6
3x = 6

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{6}{3}
3 and 3 cancels out
x = 2

Scaler factor of 1/2
olasank [31]

Dilation by a scale factor of 1/2 followed by a translation of 1.5 units down.

<h3>What is dilation?</h3>

Dilation is a transformation, which is used to resize the object. Dilation is used to make the objects larger or smaller.

Here, △ HIJ are:

IH = 3

IJ = 4

then using the scale factor = 1/2 we get

Therefore, we have:

I'H '= 1.5

I'J '= 2

Hence, dilation by a scale factor of 1/2 followed by a translation of 1.5 units down.
