Given:
The vertex of a triangle MNP are M(-4, 6), N(2, 6), and P(-1, 1).
The rule of dilation is:
The image of triangle MNP after dilation is M'N'P'.
To find:
The coordinates of the endpoints of segment M'N'.
Solution:
The end points of MN are M(-4, 6) and N(2, 6).
The rule of dilation is:
Using this rule, we get
And,
The endpoints of M'N' are M'(-6, 9) and N'(3, 9).
Therefore, the correct option is B.
4(x - 2) + 6 = 2(5x - 6) <em>use distributive property</em>
(4)(x) + (4)(-2) + 6 = (2)(5x) + (2)(-6)
4x - 8 + 6 = 10x - 12
4x - 2 = 10x - 12 <em>add 2 to both sides</em>
4x = 10x - 10 <em>subtract 10 from both sides</em>
-6x = -10 <em>divide both sides by (-6)</em>
x = 10/6
<h3>x = 5/3</h3>
Answer: The answer is (B)
