The first step to determine the percentage of increase is to compute for the difference of consumer price index in value.

231.11 (consumer price index for 2012) – 211.4 (consumer price index for 2007) = 19.71 (increase)

To compute for the percentage of increase, you need to compare the increase to the consumer price index for 2007.

19.71/211.4 = 9.3% increase

In the transformation ABC A'B'C', the preimage of B' is ____. . a0
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Pre image of B' is B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

ABC is a triangle

A transformation is done on ABC so that the image is A'B'C'.

Note that transformations are of various types such as dilation, vertical shift, horizontal shift, rotation about a point, reflection on a line, etc.

In any type of transformation, corresponding vertices will be matched.  In other words, A will become A', B will become B' and C will become C'.

Because of the property of the transformation to keep images similar and also transforming correspondingly the vertices we get preimage of B' would be nothing but B itself.
