Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation of .1 or 1/2 would decrease the size. Since the numbers are smaller than zero the triangles would no longer be congruent. A dilation of 10 would increase the size of the triangle, causing the triangles to no longer be congruent. A scale fact of one is equivalent to the same size because 1 does not increase or decrease the size.

Expression when m=8 and n=7 n+6m

Andrews [41]

All you have to do is plug m and n into the equation:

n+6m

Since n=7, you'll get:

7+6m

And since m=8, you'll get:

7+6(8)

And by doing the order of operations (PEMDAS), you'll start off multiplying 6 and 8, which is 48, then add 7, which is 55.

Your answer should be 55!
