GIVING BRAINLEST!!!Joe and Tim observed two points, P and Q, on a number line. A number line is shown from negative 1 to positiv
e 1 with increments of 1 over 8. The numbers negative 1, negative 6 over 8, negative 4 over 8, negative 2 over 8, 0, 2 over 8, 4 over 8, 6 over 8 are labeled on the number line. A point P is shown to the third place on the left of 0, and a point Q is shown to the third place on the right of 0. Joe said that the absolute values of the numbers represented by the two points are different. Tim said that the absolute values of the numbers represented by the two points are the same. Which of the following explains who is correct?
Rotation and translation are rigid transformations, they don't change figure sizes. Dilation change figure sizes increasing or decreasing them by scale factor.
First, find AB and A'B' by the formula:
As you can see AB=2A'B'. This means that the segment AB was decreased twice to form segment A'B'. Then the scale factor is 1/2.
