<u>What is slope ?</u>
A line's steepness is determined by its slope. In mathematics, slope is determined by "rise over run" (change in y divided by change in x).
step 1
Find the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line
y=x-6 ---> given line
The slope is m=1
Remember that
If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is equal to -1)
m1*m2 = -1
we have
m1=1
substitute
(1)*m2 = -1
so
m2 = -1
step 2
Find the equation of the perpendicular line to the given line
The equation in point slope form is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
we have
m=-1
(x1,y1)=(−9,−3)
substitute
y+3=-1(x+9)--> equation in point slope form
y+3= -x-9
y= -x-12---> equation in slope intercept form
step 3
Find the intersection point between the given line and the perpendicular line to the given line
we have the system of equations
y = x−6.
y= -x-12
Solve the system by graphing
The intersection point is (-3,-9)
see the attached figure
step 4
we know that
The distance between the point A and the point (-3,-9) is the same that the distance between point A and the line y=x-6
the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to
d=√[(y2-y1)² + (x2-x1)²]
substitute the values
d=√[(-9+3)² + (-3+9)²]
d= √72 units
simplify
d= 6√2 = 8.5 units

Answer:
See bolded below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Take a look at the attachment below. It represents circle x and y, with respect to each of their radii. In each of the options we are given, we would have to translate and dilate the circles, by a fixed scale factor -
Now the first thing one would do is translate the circles so that they share a common center point, or in other words the center of one circle rests on the edge of the other circle. That way when dilating circle y, it may fit into circle x as it expands.
The second point is how much this smaller circle ( circle y ) has to expand. The radius of circle y being 2, has to increase by 3 times the value to equal the radius of circle x, and hence has to dilate by a scale factor of 3 as to match circle x,
<u><em>Solution = " Translate the circles so the center of one circle rests on the edge of the other circle, and dilate circle Y by a scale factor of 3 " / Option D</em></u>
