Triangle ABCTriangle ABC ​is transformed with the center of dilation at the origin. Pre-image: △ABC with vertices A(−5, −4), B(−

7, 3), C(3, −2) Image: △A′B′C′ with vertices A′(−3.75, −3), B′(−5.25, 2.25), C′(2.25, −1.5) What is the scale factor of the dilation that maps the pre-image to the image?

Pre Image  having vertices : △ABC with vertices A(−5, −4), B(−7, 3), C(3, −2)

Image having vertices : △A′B′C′ with vertices A′(−3.75, −3), B′(−5.25, 2.25), C′(2.25, −1.5).

As, Size of Preimage > Size of image

So, 0<Dilation Factor <1

When a triangle is dilated , the preimage and image are similar to each other .

Scale factor can be get through by finding the ratio of any of corresponding sides of triangle.

\frac{A'B'}{AB}=\frac{\sqrt{2.25 +27.5625}}{\sqrt{4+49}}=\sqrt{\frac{29.8125}{53}}=\sqrt{0.5625}=0.75=\frac{3}{4}

So, Scale Factor of Dilation = \frac{3}{4}=0.75

Kim sold christmas pies for 5.00$ each. She earned 156 how many pies she sold also let x repersent the number of pies, x, kim so
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer: 31.2 pies

Step-by-step explanation:

Kim sold pies for $5.00 each and earned $156 from doing so.

The number of pies she sold to get to this was x pies.

The formula for doing so is therefore:

5 * x pies = 156

5x = 156

x = 156 / 5

= 31.2 pies

What is the positive solution to the equation 0=⅓x²-3
sammy [17]
Add 3, multiply by 3, and take the positive square root.
  3 = (1/3)x²
  9 = x²
  √9 = 3 = x

The positive solution to the equation is x = 3.
