A student claimed that the transformation (x, y) arrowright (3x, y) is a rigid motion because the segment joining (6, 1) to (6,

3) is transformed to the segment joining (18, 1) to (18, 3), and both of these segments have the same length. Complete the explanation of the student's error.
The transformation is a stretch by a factor of , so it preserves the length of segments but not the length of segments. In order to be a rigid motion, the transformation must preserve lengths, so this transformation a rigid motion.

<span>A rigid transformation is a transformation of the plane that preserves length.

Reflections, translations, rotations, and combinations of these three transformations are "rigid transformations".

The transformation (x, y) \rightarrow (3x, y) is a transformation where the x-value of the original figure is streched by a factor of 3.

</span>
<span>Therefore, the correct explanation is
The transformation is a stretch by a factor of 3, so it preserves the length of y segments but not the length of x segments. In order to be a rigid motion, the transformation must preserve lengths, so this transformation not a rigid motion.</span>

What is the factored form of the expression. (2n^2 + 5n + 3) (4n - 5)
7nadin3 [17]

So firstly, <u>the factor (4n - 5) cannot be further factored, so we will be focusing on 2n² + 5n + 3.</u>

So for this, we will be factoring by grouping. Firstly, what two terms have a product of 6n² and a sum of 5n? That would be 2n and 3n. Replace 5n with 2n + 3n:

(2n^2 + 2n + 3n + 3)(4n - 5)

Next, factor 2n² + 2n and 3n + 3 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside of the parentheses:

(2n(n+1)+3(n+1))(4n-5)

Now we can rewrite this expression as<u> (2n+3)(n+1)(4n-5) , which is your final answer.</u>

Your answer is- (x being tickets sold and y being the amount of money) y=55x.

This means that for every ticket bought, it costs 55 dollars.
