Answer: 2/3

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we have 8/15 ÷ 4/5. Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. In other words, we can change the division sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction.

8/15 ÷ 4/5 can be rewritten as 8/15 × 5/4

Now, we are simply multiplying fractions so we multiply across the numerators and multiply across the denominators.

8/15 × 5/4 = 40/60 = 2/3

Point T has coordinates (10,20). To calculate the coordinates of point T′ in the image,

Hatshy [7]

Answer: $T'(18,36)$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise it is important to know the definition of "Dilation".

A Dilation is defined as a transformation in which the Image (The figure obtained after the transformation) and the Pre-Image (The original figure before the transformation) have the same shape but have different sizes.

If the Dilation is centered at the origin, and knowing the scale factor of $\frac{9}{5}$ , you need to multiply each coordinate of the point T by the scale factor in order to find the coordinates of the Image T'.
