Answer: Choice C) 10.5
The distance from A to C is 7 units (count out the spaces between the two points, or subtract y coordinates 4-(-3) = 4+3 = 7)
Let AC = 7 be the base of the triangle. You might want to rotate the image so that AC is laying horizontally rather than being vertical.
Now move to point P. Walk 3 spaces to the right until you land on segment AC. This shows that the height of the triangle is 3 when the base is AC = 7.
base = 7, height = 3
area of triangle = (1/2)*base*height
area of triangle = 0.5*7*3
area of triangle = 10.5 square units
Answer: a + 4
explanation: sum means what comes from two numbers being added. so you just need to add a and 4
Step-by-step answer:
Given an enlargement from preimage (ABC) to image (A'B'C').
Need to find scale factor.
Solution:
Scale factor = linear size of image / linear size of preimage.
From the accompanying diagram, we see that
L(preimage) = AC = 4 units
L(image) = A'C' = 12 units
Therefore
Scale factor = L(image) / L(preimage) = 12 / 4 = 3
Answer:
For inverse operations, it helps make solving equations easier. Say if you'd rather add than subtract, then you can do the inverse of a negative equation.
Inverse operations are also very helpful for linear equations.
To find the inverse of an equation, we change the plus sign to a negative sign. Then, we switch the first number and the answer.
Ex:
13 - 2 = 11 (now change plus to minus)
13 + 2 = 11 (not the answer yet)
Now we switch the first number with the answer!
11 + 2 = 13
Hope this helped, I tried to explain it easily.
