Mathematics

The rule for dilation (scale factor k) about the origin is given by:
(x,y)->(kx,ky)

The scale factor k can be obtained from any one of the ratios:
scale\, factor\, =\, k\, = \frac{OD'}{OD}=\frac{OE'}{OE}=\frac{OF'}{OF}=\frac{OG'}{OG}=\frac{1}{2}

Answer:

The scale factor of the dilation is \frac{1}{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure it is clear that the vertices of figure DEFG are D(4,8), E(8,8), F(8,6), G(4,6).

The vertices of image D'E'F'G' are D'(2,4), E'(4,4), F'(4,3), G'(2,3).

From the figure it is clear that DF=4 units and D'F'=2 units.

The scale factor is proportion of corresponding sides of image and preimage.

k=(D'F')/(DF)

Substitute DF=4 units and D'F'=2 units.

k=(2)/(4)

k = \frac{1}{2}

Therefore the scale factor of the dilation is \frac{1}{2}.

Mr. Dewalt suggested contacting a travel agent to see whether they could get a lower price. The agent found
Liono4ka [1.6K]
Finding a price that is 30% lower than $2075 is the same as finding a price that is 70% of $2075.

That means all we need to do is calculate what is 70% of $2075.

Convert 70% into decimal form which is 0.70.

Next, multiply $2075 by 0.70.

$2075*0.70 = $1452.50

The price the travel agent found was $1452.50

Note: If you don't know how to multiply by decimals you can multiply $2075 by 7 than divide the result by 10 (move the decimal point one place to the left).

For A brainlist ** explain
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

So interval notation is with ( and [ where ( is exclusive and [ is inclusive.

Like (1,2) is between 1 and 2 exclusive. [1,2] is between 1 and 2 inclusive. (1,2] is between 1 and 2, 1 exclusive 2 inclusive.

at the point (6,0) you see that the graph goes from above 0 to below 0 (from positive to negative)

The values are positive when x is less than 6 and negative when x is greater than 6.

so the positive interval is

(-infinity, 6)

and with inifinity you always use exclusive

It's that because everything from all the way to the left (-infinity) to 6, is above the x-axis, which means it's positive

using this logic can you do the negative interval?
