Answer:
The scale factor of the dilation that transforms the triangle is 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
9x1/3 is 3. 6x1/3 is 2, etc.
Begin by factoring 2 out of 2x^2 - 2x - 12 equals 0:
2(x^2 - x - 6) = 0
2(x - 3)(x + 2) = 0. 2 is never zero, but x-3 and x+2 can each be set = to 0:
This results in x = 3 and x = -2. The equation is true for these two x-values.
