Answer:
Looks like the scale factor is 1/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>(In this dilation, the green image is polygon ABCDE, and the red image is polygon A'B'C'D'E'. The red image is the resulting image after said dilation.)</em>
A scale factor greater than one enlarges an image, and a scale factor between zero and one shrinks an image, so that rules out options 2 (SF = -3) and 3 (SF = 3).
A negative scale factor would end up in an image opposite the center of enlargement, so that eliminates option 4 (SF = -1/3).
So that means that the scale factor is option 1 (SF = 1/3)!
Answer:
7a^4 +35a^2 +28a
Step-by-step explanation:
Area is the product of height and width:
area = height × width
= 7 × (a^4 +5a^2 +4a)
area = 7a^4 +35a^2 +28a . . . . . . use the distributive property
If the series is made up of numbers in an arithmetic progression, you have
where
is the first term and
is the common difference between terms.
Since the last term in the series is
, you have
Solve the system
and you'll find that the first term is
(with
