Use repeated addition to find the solution to each multiplication problem. Change any improper fractions to mixed numbers. 4x1/3

Nata [24]

Answer:

$1\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

$4\times\frac{1}{3}$

To find the answer simply multiply the numerators and the denominators by each other.

$4\times\frac{1}{3}$
$4=\frac{4}{1}$
$\frac{4}{1} \times\frac{1}{3}$
$4\times1=4$
$1\times3=3$
$=\frac{4}{3}$
$\frac{4}{3} =4\div3=1\frac{1}{3}$
$1\frac{1}{3}$

Hope this helps.

A dilation has center (0, 0). Find the image of each point for the given scale factor.

pshichka [43]

Answer:

A. (−3,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule for dilation by scale factor k is given by:

$(x,y)\to (kx,ky)$

The given point is P(-3,5) and the scale factor is k=1

We substitute the point and the scale factor into the rule to get:

$P(-3,5)\to P'(-3\times1,5\times1)$

This gives us:

$P(-3,5)\to P'(-3,5)$

The correct answer is A
