Let s be Sophie's age. Then joanna is s²+16. Joanna is also 8s, if  Sophie is s. So:
s²+16=8s
s²-8s+16=0
(s-4)²=0
s=4
Sophie is 4; Joanna is 32

Point Q is the center of dilation. Lines segment S U is dilated to form line segment S prime U prime. The length of Q S is 3 .2
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the dilation rule is D_{Q,2.5}. It means the center of dilatation is point Q and scale factor is 2.5.

Scale factor is the ratio of distance from center to the image of a point and distance from center to the corresponding point.

\text{Scale factor}=\dfrac{QU'}{QU}

It is given that QU=4 and scale factor = 2.5.

2.5=\dfrac{QU'}{4}

Multiply both sides by 4.

2.5\times 4=QU'

10=QU'

We know that

UU'=QU'-QU

UU'=10-4

UU'=6

The distance between U' and U is 6 units.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
