Answer:

x = -7/12 or -0.583.. repeating.

Step-by-step explanation:

6x-5= -6(x+2)

___________ (distributive property)

(to group like terms)

6x-5 = -6x-12

___________ (addition poe) (add 6x on both sides to cancel -6 out)

+6x +6x

___________

12x-5 = -12

__________

+5 +5 (addition poe) (add 5 to both sides to cancel -5 out)

__________

12x = -7

__________

÷12 ÷12 (division poe) (divide both sides by 12 to get x)

x = -7/12

The diagram represents a dilation with a center at P. If the scale factor of e dilation is K, which statement about the diagram

boyakko [2]

Answer:

C is correct. If the scale factor is greater than 1, the image is an enlargement. The segment UT could be an enlargement of the segment ST.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. If > 1, then the image of could be .

B. If 0 < < 1, then the image of could be . ( If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image is a reduction )

C. If > 1, then the image of could be .

D.If = 2, then the image of is itself.

A is not correct. If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image is a reduction.

B is not correct. If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image is a reduction.

C is correct. If the scale factor is greater than 1, the image is an enlargement.

D is not correct. If the scale factor is 1, the figure and the image are congruent.

If vx = 7.60 units and vy = -6.60 units, determine the magnitude of v⃗ .

Liula [17]

To find the magnitude of a vector, take the components, square them, then add them, then take the square root. This is very similar to the Pythagorean Theorem.

For your particular problem, I’ve included a picture showing how that specific calculation is done. :)

A) part of it is decreasing, part of it is increasing.

Going left-to-right, the downhill/negative slope is the decreasing portion (x<-1) and the uphill/positive slope is the increasing portion (x>-1).

B) The x-intercepts are the points where the graph intersects the x-axis: (2,0) and (-4,0).

C: The y-intercept is the point where the graph intersects the y-axis: (0,-2).

D: There is no absolute maximum. The graph keeps going up forever.

E: The absolute minimum <u>point</u> is at that bottom, at (-1, -3). The absolute minimum <u>value</u> is -3, since that's the lowest y-value used.
