Answer:

60 cm, 60 cm, 32 cm, 32 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply each length by the scale factor.

15 cm * 4 = 60 cm

8 cm * 4 = 32 cm

The dilated sides AB and CD will have a length of 60 cm.

The dilated sides AC and BD will have a length of 32 cm.

A circle has the order pairs (-1, 2) (0, 1) (-2, -1) what is the equation . Show your work.

olga55 [171]

We know that:

$(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2$

is an equation of a circle.

When we substitute x and y (from the pairs we have), we'll get a system of equations:

$\begin{cases}(-1-a)^2+(2-b)^2=r^2\\(0-a)^2+(1-b)^2=r^2\\(-2-a)^2+(-1-b)^2=r^2\end{cases}$

and all we have to do is solve it for a, b and r.

There will be:

$\begin{cases}(-1-a)^2+(2-b)^2=r^2\\(0-a)^2+(1-b)^2=r^2\\(-2-a)^2+(-1-b)^2=r^2\end{cases}\\\\\\
\begin{cases}1+2a+a^2+4-4b+b^2=r^2\\a^2+1-2b+b^2=r^2\\4+4a+a^2+1+2b+b^2=r^2\end{cases}\\\\\\
\begin{cases}a^2+b^2+2a-4b+5=r^2\\a^2+b^2-2b+1=r^2\\a^2+b^2+4a+2b+5=r^2\end{cases}\\\\\\
$

From equations (II) and (III) we have:

$\begin{cases}a^2+b^2-2b+1=r^2\\a^2+b^2+4a+2b+5=r^2\end{cases}\\--------------(-)\\\\a^2+b^2-2b+1-a^2-b^2-4a-2b-5=r^2-r^2\\\\-4a-4b-4=0\qquad|:(-4)\\\\\boxed{-a-b-1=0}$

and from (I) and (II):

$\begin{cases}a^2+b^2+2a-4b+5=r^2\\a^2+b^2-2b+1=r^2\end{cases}\\--------------(-)\\\\a^2+b^2+2a-4b+5-a^2-b^2+2b-1=r^2-r^2\\\\2a-2b+4=0\qquad|:2\\\\\boxed{a-b+2=0}$

Now we can easly calculate a and b:

$\begin{cases}-a-b-1=0\\a-b+2=0\end{cases}\\--------(+)\\\\-a-b-1+a-b+2=0+0\\\\-2b+1=0\\\\-2b=-1\qquad|:(-2)\\\\\boxed{b=\frac{1}{2}}\\\\\\\\a-b+2=0\\\\\\a-\dfrac{1}{2}+2=0\\\\\\a+\dfrac{3}{2}=0\\\\\\\boxed{a=-\frac{3}{2}}$

Finally we calculate $r^2$ :

$a^2+b^2-2b+1=r^2\\\\\\\left(-\dfrac{3}{2}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^2-2\cdot\dfrac{1}{2}+1=r^2\\\\\\\dfrac{9}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}-1+1=r^2\\\\\\\dfrac{10}{4}=r^2\\\\\\\boxed{r^2=\frac{5}{2}}$

And the equation of the circle is:

$(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2\\\\\\\left(x-\left(-\dfrac{3}{2}\right)\right)^2+\left(y-\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^2=\dfrac{5}{2}\\\\\\\boxed{\left(x+\dfrac{3}{2}\right)^2+\left(y-\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^2=\dfrac{5}{2}}$

5. A video store charges a monthly

Rasek [7]

Answer: 8 movies

12 + 1.50x = 3x

Move the variables to one side

12 = 1.50x

Isolate x

8 = x

Check:

3(8)= 24

12.00 + 1.50(8) = 24

What is the equation of the line, in slope-intercept form, that passes through (3, -1) and (-1, 5)? y = - 2y = -3x + 7 2x + 3y -

Karolina [17]

The line passing through (3, -1) and (-1, 5) has this slope:

5+1

m = ---------- = -3/2

-1-3

We need to find the y-intercept. To do this, substitute the knowns (-3/2 for m, -1 for y and 3 for x) into the slope-intercept equation:

-1 = (-3/2)(3) + b. Then: -1 = -9/2 + b, and so b = 9/2 - 1 = 7/2.

The desired equation is y = (-3/2)x + 7/2.
