First, note that

\dfrac{4}{5}=\dfrac{4\cdot 2}{5\cdot 2}=\dfrac{8}{10}.

She counts the mileage markers that are placed every \dfrac{1}{10} of a mile along the trail. Then she counts

\dfrac{8}{10}:\dfrac{1}{10}=\dfrac{8}{10}\cdot \dfrac{10}{1}=\dfrac{8\cdot 10}{10\cdot 1}=\dfrac{8}{1}=8 markers.

Answer: 8 markers (if first marker is on the start of trail).

Jaycee draws a sequence of squares on the coordinate plane. First she draws a square in the center with corners at 2,2 spots and
Anon25 [30]

This is based on understanding what dilation means in a graph transformation.

<em />

<em>The dilation from first square directly to sixth square will be; (x,y) -> (243, 243)</em>

<em />

  • In transformations, dilation of an object involves producing an image of the object that is the same shape but not the same size.

This means that if we want to dilate a square, we will produce a bigger square of a different size.

  • We are told one corner of the first square she drew is (2, 2). This means that one side of the square is 2 units as the four sides of a square are equal.

  • For the second square, she dilates the first one using (x, y) -> (3x, 3y).

This means the corner that was (2, 2) will now be (3 × 2), (3 × 2) = (6, 6)

  • For the third square, it will be; (3 × 6), (3 × 6) = (18, 18)

  • For the fourth square, it will be; (3 × 18), (3 × 18) = (54, 54)

  • For the fifth square, it will be; (3 × 54), (3 × 54) = (162, 162)

  • For the sixth square, it will be; (3 × 162), (3 × 162) = (486, 486)

Since first square was (2, 2), then it means dilation from first square directly to sixth square will be; (x,y) -> (486/2, 486/2)

⇒ (x,y) -> (243, 243)

The perimeter of a rectangle is 44. The length is 5 less than double the width. What is the length?
OleMash [197]

44 = 2x - 5 \\   \frac{39}{2}   = \frac{2x}{2}  \\ 19.5 = x \\

Solve each system by elemination, 4x+8y=20 and -4x+2y=-30
ludmilkaskok [199]
The sum of the left side of these two equations is equal to the same of the right side is these two equations
4x+8y + (-4x+2y) = 20 + 30
10y =50 ( x is eliminated)
y=5
Take this into the second equation
-4x +2y = 30
-4x + 2*5 = 30
x=-5

So x=-5
y=5
