Answer:

y=\frac{-160}{x}, \ \ \ \ k=-160

Step-by-step explanation:

let k be a constant written as:

y=\frac{k}{x}

It is given that y=4, x=-40

#We substitute x, y values in our function:

y=\frac{k}{x}\\\\4=\frac{k}{-40}\\\\k=4\times-40\\\\k=-160

We substitute the constant value in the equation:

y=\frac{k}{x}, k=-160\\\\y=\frac{-160}{x}

Answer:

V = πr³ + 2πr²

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder:

V = πr²h

with radius r and height h = 2 + r:

V = πr²(2 + r) = πr³ + 2πr²

Dilate ABC below using A as the center and a<br> scale factor of 2. Leave all construction marks?
irina1246 [14]
<h3>Answer: Check out the diagram below.</h3>

Explanation:

Use your straightedge to extend segment AB into ray AB. This means you'll have it start at A and go on forever through B. Repeat these steps to turn segment AC into ray AC.

The two rays join at the vertex angle A. Point A is the center of the universe so to speak because it's the center of dilation. We consider it an invariant point that doesn't move. Everything else will move. In this case, everything will move twice as much compared to as before.

Use your compass to measure the width of AB. We don't need the actual number. We just need the compass to be as wide from A to B. Keep your compass at this width and move the non-pencil part to point B. Then mark a small arc along ray AB. What we've just done is constructed a congruent copy of segment AB. In other words, we've just double AB into AB'. This means the arc marking places point B' as the diagram indicates.

The same set of steps will have us construct point C' as well. AC doubles to AC'

Once we determine the locations of B' and C', we can then form triangle A'B'C' which is an enlarged copy of triangle ABC. Each side of the larger triangle has side lengths twice as long.

Note: Points A and A' occupy the same exact location. As mentioned earlier, point A doesn't move.
