Answer: −2 and −1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation is a transformation of a geometric image that is known to change its size but not the shape.

The size of the figure basically depends on the scale factor (k) .

When k >1 , then there would be expansion.

When k<1 , then there would be contraction.

When k=1 , then no change in size.

i.e. For contraction , the scale factor (k) must be negative.

From the given options , the scale factors produce a contraction under a dilation of the original image would be −2 and −1/2.

Hence,the correct answers are : −2 and −1/2.

Answer:

76 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

surface area = 2(wl + hl + hw) w=width h=height l=length

surface area = 2(5*4 + 2*4 + 2*5)

surface area = 2(20 + 8 + 10)

surface area = 2(38)

surface area = 76 square feet

Simplify and write the trig expression in terms of sin and cos

dsp73

We have:

$cot(-x)cos(-x)+sin(-x)=-\frac{1}{f(x)}$

Then we use trigonometric identities to change the negative sign of the trigonometric functions, so:

$-sin(x)-cot(x)cos(x)=-\frac{1}{f(x)}$

We clear f(x):

$f(x)=\frac{1}{sin(x)+cot(x)cos(x)}=\frac{1}{sin(x)+\frac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}cos(x)}=\frac{1}{sin(x)+\frac{cos^2(x)}{sin(x)}}$

we simply what we can:

$f(x)=\frac{1}{\frac{sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)}{sin(x)}}=sin(x)$

Thus, the correct answer is;

$f(x)=sin(x)$

Learning Task 3. Find the equation of the line. Do it in your notebook.

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

1) The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = 5\cdot x +9$ . The equation of the line in standard form is $-5\cdot x + y = 9$ .

2) The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = \frac{2}{5}\cdot x +\frac{14}{5}$ . The equation of the line in standard form is $-2\cdot x +5\cdot y = 14$ .

3) The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = 3\cdot x +4$ . The equation of the line in standard form is $-3\cdot x +y = 4$ .

4) The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = 2\cdot x + 6$ . The equation of the line in standard form is $-2\cdot x +y = 6$ .

5) The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = \frac{5}{6}\cdot x -\frac{7}{6}$ . The equation of the line in standard from is $-5\cdot x + 6\cdot y = -7$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

1) We begin with the slope-intercept form and substitute all known values and calculate the y-intercept: ( $m = 5$ , $x = -1$ , $y = 4$ )

$4 = (5)\cdot (-1)+b$

$4 = -5 +b$

$b = 9$

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = 5\cdot x +9$ .

Then, we obtain the standard form by algebraic handling:

$-5\cdot x + y = 9$

The equation of the line in standard form is $-5\cdot x + y = 9$ .

2) We begin with a system of linear equations based on the slope-intercept form: ( $x_{1} = 3$ , $y_{1} = 4$ , $x_{2} = -2$ , $y_{2} = 2$ )

$3\cdot m + b = 4$ (Eq. 1)

$-2\cdot m + b = 2$ (Eq. 2)

From (Eq. 1), we find that:

$b = 4-3\cdot m$

And by substituting on (Eq. 2), we conclude that slope of the equation of the line is:

$-2\cdot m +4-3\cdot m = 2$

$-5\cdot m = -2$

$m = \frac{2}{5}$

And from (Eq. 1) we find that the y-Intercept is:

$b=4-3\cdot \left(\frac{2}{5} \right)$

$b = 4-\frac{6}{5}$

$b = \frac{14}{5}$

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = \frac{2}{5}\cdot x +\frac{14}{5}$ .

Then, we obtain the standard form by algebraic handling:

$-\frac{2}{5}\cdot x +y = \frac{14}{5}$

$-2\cdot x +5\cdot y = 14$

The equation of the line in standard form is $-2\cdot x +5\cdot y = 14$ .

3) By using the slope-intercept form, we obtain the equation of the line by direct substitution: ( $m = 3$ , $b = 4$ )

$y = 3\cdot x +4$

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = 3\cdot x +4$ .

Then, we obtain the standard form by algebraic handling:

$-3\cdot x +y = 4$

The equation of the line in standard form is $-3\cdot x +y = 4$ .

4) We begin with a system of linear equations based on the slope-intercept form: ( $x_{1} = -3$ , $y_{1} = 0$ , $x_{2} = 0$ , $y_{2} = 6$ )

$-3\cdot m + b = 0$ (Eq. 3)

$b = 6$ (Eq. 4)

By applying (Eq. 4) on (Eq. 3), we find that the slope of the equation of the line is:

$-3\cdot m+6 = 0$

$3\cdot m = 6$

$m = 2$

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = 2\cdot x + 6$ .

Then, we obtain the standard form by algebraic handling:

$-2\cdot x +y = 6$

The equation of the line in standard form is $-2\cdot x +y = 6$ .

5) We begin with a system of linear equations based on the slope-intercept form: ( $x_{1} = -1$ , $y_{1} = -2$ , $x_{2} = 5$ , $y_{2} = 3$ )

$-m+b = -2$ (Eq. 5)

$5\cdot m +b = 3$ (Eq. 6)

From (Eq. 5), we find that:

$b = -2+m$

And by substituting on (Eq. 6), we conclude that slope of the equation of the line is:

$5\cdot m -2+m = 3$

$6\cdot m = 5$

$m = \frac{5}{6}$

And from (Eq. 5) we find that the y-Intercept is:

$b = -2+\frac{5}{6}$

$b = -\frac{7}{6}$

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is $y = \frac{5}{6}\cdot x -\frac{7}{6}$ .

Then, we obtain the standard form by algebraic handling:

$-\frac{5}{6}\cdot x +y =-\frac{7}{6}$

$-5\cdot x + 6\cdot y = -7$

The equation of the line in standard from is $-5\cdot x + 6\cdot y = -7$ .

Which is a real-world example of two planes intersecting?

leva [86]

The answer to the question above is the third choice, "a shelf on a wall". The shelf is usually made of rectangular pieces of materials that are then connected to each other to form quadrilaterals. The sides of the shelf are planes.
