Answer:

A) A contraction

B) A scale factor of 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The pre-image is LMNK and the image is L'M'N'K' and because the image is smaller than the pre-image, it is a contraction.

For the scale factor, we know it has to be at least less than 1 because it is a contraction. Notice the pre-image points are always exactly in the middle of the pre-image point and the origin, so we can assume that the scale factor is 1/2.

Hope this helps.

Have a good day! :)

y=-4+4 \\
y=0 \\ \\
(x,y)=(\frac{2}{3},0)$

The system has one solution so it's A. consistent and independent.

Answer:

$GF=72$

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangles in the given figure are similar, from SAS. Notice that marked in the diagram, $CD=DE=EF=FA$ .

For triangle $\triangle CGF$ was base $GF$ , leg $CF$ contains three of these marked segments. In triangle $\triangle CHE$ with base $HE$ , leg $CE$ has two of these marked segments. By definition, similar polygons have corresponding sides in a constant proportion. Therefore, the length of GF must be $3/2$ the length of EH. Since the length of EH is given as 48, we have:
