The difference between the solution to the equation x² = a is 30.
x² = a
x = √a or x = -√a.
The difference between the solutions satisfies the condition
√a - (-√a) = 30
2√a = 30
√a = 15
a = 15² = 225
Check the answer.
When x = +√a,
x² = (√a)² = a Correct
When x = -√a,
x² = (-√a)² = a Correct
Answer: a = 225, and the answer checks out to be correct.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A.
Coordinates of A and B are,
A(-2, 2) and B(3, 2)
Rule for dilation of a point (x, y) by a scale factor k about the origin,
(x, y) → (kx, ky)
If the points A and B are dilated by a scale factor 3, image points will be,
A(-2, 2) → A'(-6, 6)
B(3, 2) → B'(9, 6)
Part B.
Following the same rule of dilation about the origin by a scale factor of
about the origin,
A(-2, 2) → D(-1, 1)
B(3, 2) →
