PQR has vertices at P(2, 4), Q(3, 8) and R(5, 4). A dilation and series of translations map PQR to ABC, whose vertices are A(2,

4), B(5.5, 18), and C(12.5, 4). What is the scale factor of the dilation in the similarity transformation?

Answer with explanation:

⇒Vertices of Δ PQR = P(2, 4), Q(3, 8) and R(5, 4)

Area of Δ PQR

           =\frac{1}{2} \times \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&4&1\\3&8&1\\5&4&1\end{array}\right] \\\\=\frac{1}{2} \times[ 2\times(8-4)-4 \times (3-5)+1 \times (12-40)]\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \times [8+8-28]\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \times|16-28|\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \times 12\\\\=6 \text{square units}

⇒Vertices of Δ ABC  A(2, 4), B(5.5, 18), and C(12.5, 4).

Area of Δ  ABC

           =\frac{1}{2} \times \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&4&1\\5.5&18&1\\12.5&4&1\end{array}\right] \\\\=\frac{1}{2} \times[ 2\times(18-4)-4\times (5.5-12.5)+1 \times (22-225)]\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \times [28+28-203]\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \times|56-203|\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \times 147\\\\=73.50\text{square units}

⇒Scale Factor or Dilation in this transformation

 = is Area of Image Divided by Area of Preimage

         =\frac{\text{Area of} \Delta ABC}{\text{Area of} \Delta PQR}\\\\=\frac{73.50}{6}\\\\=12.25

Determine whether the measures 2, √8, and √12 can be the measures of the sides of a triangle. If so, classify the triangle as ac
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

First check if the triangle is right.

If the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides then the triangle is right.

longest side = \sqrt{12} and (\sqrt{12} )² = 12

2² + (\sqrt{8} )² = 4 + 8 = 12

Thus the triangle is right → C

Answer:

Slope = -5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Take 2 points from the graph where the line is. Point 1: (1 , 6). Point 2: (9 , 1).

We are going to use the formula for finding the slope of a line now.

y2 - y1/x2 - x1 = 1 - 6/9 - 1 = -5/8

Slope = -5/8

Nadine bought 5 quarts of oil for her car. <br><br> How many fluid ounces is that?
DochEvi [55]
There are 160 fluid ounces in 5 quarts. Because there are 32 fluid ounces in 1 quart multiply that by 5 and you get 160. Your welcome!!!

Please help with this math question
blagie [28]

Answer:

Mirandah added 5x and 9y, which she shouldn't do because one is y and the other is x, meaning they don't match.

There is no simplifying the equation. It should stay 5x + 9y - 4

If wrong, I apologize, but this should be correct.

Let f(x) be a quartic polynomial with integer coefficients and four integer roots. Suppose the constant term of f(x) is 6.(a) Is
frez [133]

Answer:

  (a) yes

  (b) no; see below

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Integer roots of the quartic will be integer divisors of 6. One of the divisors of 6 is 3, so 3 is a possible root.

(b) In order for 3 to be a double root, it would have to be a double factor of 6. The only integer factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, 6. (3² = 9 is not one.)

___

The quartic can be written as ...

  k(x -a)(x -b)(x -c)(x -d) . . . . . where a, b, c, d, k are integers

The constant term will be kabcd, of which each of the roots is a factor. If the constant is 6 and one root is d=3, then we must have

  kabcd = 3kabc = 6

  kabc = 6/3 = 2

Among these four integer factors, there must be an even number of minus signs, and one that has the value ±2. Another root whose value is 3 will not satisfy the requirements.
