Triangle PQR is transformed to triangle P'Q'R'. Triangle PQR has vertices P(4, 0), Q(0, −4), and R(−8, −4). Triangle P'Q'R' has

vertices P'(1, 0), Q'(0, −1), and R'(−2, −1).
Plot triangles PQR and P'Q'R' on your own coordinate grid.

Part A: What is the scale factor of the dilation that transforms triangle PQR to triangle P'Q'R'? Explain your answer.

Part B: Write the coordinates of triangle P"Q"R" obtained after P'Q'R' is reflected about the y-axis.

Answer:

Please find attached the required plot accomplished with an online tool

Part A:

1/4

Part B:

P''(-1, 0),  Q''(0, -1), and R''(2, -1)

Part C:

Triangle PQR is similar to triangle P''Q''R'' but they are not congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Triangle ΔPQR has vertices P(4, 0), Q(0, -4), R(-8, -4)

Triangle ΔP'Q'R' has vertices P'(1, 0), Q'(0, -1), R'(-2, -1)

The dimensions of the sides of the triangle are given by the relation;

l = \sqrt{\left (y_{2}-y_{1}  \right )^{2}+\left (x_{2}-x_{1}  \right )^{2}}

Where;

(x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the coordinates on the ends of the segment

For segment PQ, we place (x₁, y₁) = (4, 0) and (x₂, y₂) = (0, -4);

By substitution into the length equation, we get;

The length of segment PQ = 4·√2

The length of segment PR = 4·√10

The length of segment RQ = 8  

The length of segment P'Q' = √2

The length of segment P'R' = √10

The length of segment R'Q' = 2

Therefore, the scale factor of the dilation of ΔPQR to ΔP'Q'R' is 1/4

Part B:

Reflection of (x, y) across the y-axis gives;

(x, y) image after reflection across the y-axis = (-x, y)

The coordinates after reflection of P'(1, 0), Q'(0, -1), R'(-2, -1) across the y-axis is given as follows;

P'(1, 0) image after reflection across the y-axis = P''(-1, 0)

Q'(0, -1) image after reflection across the y-axis = Q''(0, -1)

R'(-2, -1) image after reflection across the y-axis = R''(2, -1)

Part C:

Triangle PQR is similar to triangle P''Q''R'' but they are not congruent as the dimensions of the sides of triangle PQR and P''Q''R'' are not the same.

What is the equation of the exponential graph shown?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

100(0.5)^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the graph, the y int is at 100

so that is the starting point

Then at 1 it is at 50

\frac{100}{50} is 2 so that means it is reduced by half

Just to make sure, \frac{50}{25} is also /2 so that means it is the slope

Since it is a decay, the slope has to be less than one so you get the reciprecol of 2 to get....

Solve the equation algebraically for all values of X
noname [10]
This is a problem you need to solve using logs. When you use logs you can "pull" the exponents down in front of the log to get a new equation that looks like this: 2x^3 + x^2 log 81 = 6x - 3 log 27. Now divide both sides by log 81 and 6x - 3 simultaneously to get (2x^3 + x^2)/(6x - 3) = (log 27)/(log 81). If you do the log math on the right side you get .75. Now multiply both sides by 6x-3 to get 2x^3+x^2 = .75(6x-3). If you distribute that out on the left side you'll get 2x^3+x^2=4.5x-2.25. Now move everything over to the left side and set the whole thing equal to 0: 2x^3+x^2-4.5x+2.25=0. When you solve for x, you are in essence factoring, so do this by grouping: x^2(2x+1)-2.25(2x+1). Now finally factor out the 2x+1 to get (2x+1)(x^2-2.25). You're not done yet though cuz you need to solve each of those for x: 2x+1=0, and x= -1/2; x^2=2.25, and x=+/- 1.5. So all the values for x here are -1/2, 1.5, and -1.5
