Answer:
38
Step-by-step explanation:
Since center of dilation is the origin, this is easy. Just divide all of the x and y coordinate values by 3. Place the new point on the graph, and draw the triangle.
R' = R(3,6)/3 = (3/3,6/3)=(1,2). So R'(1,2)
S' = S(-3,6)/3 = (-3/3,6/3)=(-1,2). So S'(-1,2)
T' = T(-6,-6)/3 = (-6/3,-6/3)=(-2,-2). So T'(-2,-2)
So you now know the location of the 3 new points. R' at (1,2), S' at (-1,2) and T' at (-2,-2). Simply draw those 3 points on your graph and connect the lines to make a new triangle.
The answer should be -3, I can explain it if you want.
Answer:
<u>a= -4</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract 4a from both sides
add 15 to both sides
divide both sides by -3
