Answer: The correct answer is “this is a reflection across the x-axis”
Answer: a) y=-29x-20 b) y=3/5x-18
Step-by-step explanation:
a) m = (-49-38)/(1 - (-2)) = -87/3 = -29
y=-29x+b --> Substitute (1,-49) as a point
(-49)=-29(1)+b
-49=-29+b
-b=-29+49
b=-20
Therefore, the equation of the line is y=-29x-20
b) m = (-18-(-9)/(0-15)) = -9/-15 = 3/5
The y-intercept is (0,-18) as it's where the line intersects the y-axis and x equals 0
Therefore, the equation of the line is y=3/5x-18
H = 2f / (m+1)
[multiply by (m+1)]
h(m+1) = 2f
[divide by 2]
f = (h (m + 1)) / 2
3b / (b+2) = 12 / (b+2)
[multiply by (b+2)]
3b = 12
[divide by 3]
b = 4
3 / (6x + 1) / 2 = 8 / (x + 4) / 3
[multiply both denominators to mike one denominator]
3 / 8(6x+1) = 8 / 3(x+4)
[expand brackets]
3 / (48x + 8) = 8 / (3x + 12)
[multiply by (48x + 8)]
3 = 8(48x + 8) / (3x+12)
[multiply by (3x+12)]
3(3x +12) = 4(48x + 8)
[simplify]
9x + 36 = 192x + 32
173x = 4
x = 4 / 173

Answer: Polygon Q's area is 1/4 of Polygon P's area
======================================================
Explanation:
Imagine we had a square with side length 8. The area of this square is 8*8 = 64.
Now let's reduce each side of the square by the scale factor 1/2. So each new side is 8*(1/2) = 4. The area of this smaller square is 4*4 = 16.
Comparing the new area (16) to the old one (64), we see that the new area is 16/64 = 1/4 of the old area.
In other words,
new smaller area = (1/4)*(old larger area)
So this is one example to see why (1/2)*(1/2) = 1/4 is the area scale factor based on the linear scale factor of 1/2. In short, (1/2)^2 = 1/4. Whatever the original scale factor is, square it and you'll get the area scale factor.
