Solve for p:
p/8 + 3/8 = 25/8
p/8 + 3/8 = (p + 3)/8:
(p + 3)/8 = 25/8

Multiply both sides of (p + 3)/8 = 25/8 by 8:
(8 (p + 3))/8 = (8×25)/8
(8×25)/8 = (8×25)/8:
(8 (p + 3))/8 = (8×25)/8
(8 (p + 3))/8 = 8/8×(p + 3) = p + 3:p + 3 = (8×25)/8
(8×25)/8 = 8/8×25 = 25:
p + 3 = 25

Subtract 3 from both sides:
p + (3 - 3) = 25 - 3
3 - 3 = 0:
p = 25 - 3
25 - 3 = 22:
Answer: p = 22

Triangle PQR lies in the xy-plane, and the coordinates of vertex Q are (2, –3). Triangle PQR is rotated 180° clockwise about the

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

(2,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that triangle PQR lies in the xy-plane, and coordinates of Q are (2,-3).

Triangle PQR is rotated 180 degrees clockwise about the origin and then reflected across the y-axis to produce triangle P'Q'R',

We have to find the coordinates of Q'.

The coordinates of Q(2,-3).

180 degree clockwise rotation about the origin then transformation rule

$(x,y)\rightarrow (-x,-y)$

The coordinates (2,-3) change into (-2,3) after 180 degree clockwise rotation about origin.

Reflect across y- axis the transformation rule

$(x,y)\rightarrow (-x,y)$

Therefore, when reflect across y- axis then the coordinates (-2,3) change into (2,3).

Hence, the coordinates of Q(2,3).
