Answer:

A circle 2 is a dilation of circle 1 with a scale factor of 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given information about two circles as given below:

circle 1: center (0,0) and radius 2x

circle 2: center (0,0) and radius 10x .

Now we need to find about why is circle 1 similar to circle where x is any positive number.

We know that all circles are similar. So after dilation it doesn't affect their similarities.

10x can be obtained from 2x, by multiplying 2x with 5.

So the first choice "A circle 2 is a dilation of circle 1 with a scale factor of 5" is correct.

The equation of line QR is y = negative 1 over 2x + 1. Write an equation of a line perpendicular to line QR in slope-intercept f

Vesnalui [34]

Any perpendicular line has a negative reciprocal slope. So your slope would be 2. The. You would have the equation : y=2x+b. You would then replace the coordinate (5,6) with x and y on your line to solve for b. Your equation would be : y=2x-4

Let x represent the number of members last summer. Then 90% more is 1.9x. We are told this is 114, so we have ...

1.9x = 114

x = 114/1.9 = 60

There were 60 members last summer.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set x=0

when you do that, you will find the point where y=12 since x^2+8x=0, but adding the 12 moves up the y-component by 12 units
