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

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

<em>Thang will pay $1620 interest</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Simple Interest</u>

Definition: Interest calculated on the original principal only of a loan or on the balance of an account.

Unlike compound interest where the interest earned in the compounding periods is added to the new principal, simple interest only considers the principal to calculate the interest.

The interest earned is calculated as follows:

I=P.r.t

Where:

I = Interest

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

t = time

Thang borrowed P=$6000 from his local bank. The loan was for t=3 years at a simple interest rate of r=9% = 0.09. The interest is calculated as:

I = 6000*0.09*3

I = 1620

Thang will pay $1620 interest

James knows that when he walks, he takes about 120 steps per minute and that each step is 2.75 feet long. Which calculation is m
mafiozo [28]
Speed=120step/min=720step/h
Distance=720step/h×2.75feet/step=1980feet/h=0.375miles/h
So the answer is: he can walking 0.375miles per hour

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the number 16

16

• Round to the nearest ten

since 6 is greater or equal to 5 round 1 to 2

20

• Divide by the number in 2 pairs

Divide by 2

10

• Add -5

10 + -5 = 5

• Increase by 1

5+1 = 6
