Answer:

D) (x, y) → (1/3x , 1/3 y)

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation is a change of size, if the dilation factor is greater than 1, then the figure is enlarged.  If the dilation factor is smaller than 1, the figure is shrinked.  In both cases, the coordinates are MULTIPLIED by the dilation factor.

Among the 4 choices, only 2 are dilations.  One is with a dilation factor of 3 (A), which means the shape was enlarged.  And the other is with  dilation factor of 1/3, meaning the shape was shrinked.

Since we went from MNOP (LARGE one) to M'N'O'P' (small one), the dilation factor was < 1... so 1/3 is the answer.

Answers B and  C show a translation/movement of the shape, not a dilation.

If g(x ) = 3x - 5, then g -1(x )=
NemiM [27]
G(x) = 3x - 5

let g(x) = y

y = 3x - 5

y + 5 = 3x

3x = y + 5

x = (y + 5)/3

From y = g(x),  x = g⁻¹(y) 

<span>x = (y + 5)/3
</span>
 g⁻¹(y)  = <span>(y + 5)/3</span>

 g⁻¹(x)  = <span>(x + 5)/3</span>

The angles of a triangle are in the ratio of 2 : 12 : 16. The sum of all the angles in a triangle must equal 180 degrees. What i
UkoKoshka [18]

If the ratios are 2:12:16 the equation that should be used is 2x + 12x + 16x = 180.

First solve for x:

2x + 12x + 16x = 180

30x = 180

x = 6

Then plug x back in to find the degrees for each angle:

2x = 2(6) = 12

12x = 12(6) = 72

16x = 16(6) = 96

These are the degrees for each triangle: 12 degrees, 72 degrees, and 96 degrees which adds up to 180 degrees in total.

The equation, also at the top, is 2x + 12x + 16x = 180.

Vladimir79 [104]
Volume=legnth times width times height
legnth=8
width=5
height=4
volume=8 times 5 times 4=160

volume is 160 cubic inches or 160 in^3

As x approaches 5
hmm, we can divide the (x-5) from top and bottom to get x-5
if we input 5 for x we get
