Answer:

\huge\boxed{x = 6 , y = -2}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf \frac{1}{2} x - 3y = 9-----------(1)\\5x + y = 28 ----------(2)

Taking equation (1)

\sf \frac{1}{2} x -3 y=9

Multiplying both sides by 2

\sf x-6y = 18

Adding 6y to both sides

\sf x = 18+6y

Putting this in (2)

5(18+6y) + y = 28

5(18+6y) + y = 28

90 + 30y+y = 28

31y+90-28 = 0

31 y + 62 = 0

31y = -62

Dividing both sides by 31

y = -2

Now,

x = 18 + 6y

x = 18+6(-2)

x = 18-12

x = 6

1/2x - 3y = 9 (1)
5x + y = 28 (2)

(1) x 2
x - 6y = 18

(2) x 6
30x + 6y = 168
—————

x - 6y = 18 (3)
30x + 6y = 168 (4)

(3) + (4)
31x = 186
x = 6

sub x into (2)
30 + y = 28
y = -2
—————

x = 6
y = -2

Triangle MNP is dilated according to the rule DO,1.5 (x,y)Right arrow(1.5x, 1.5y) to create the image triangle M'N'P, which is n
Vikki [24]

Given:

The vertex of a triangle MNP are M(-4, 6), N(2, 6), and P(-1, 1).

The rule of dilation is:

(x,y)\to (1.5x,1.5y)

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:

(x,y)\to (1.5x,1.5y)

Using this rule, we get

M(-4,6)\to M'(1.5(-4),1.5(6))

M(-4,6)\to M'(-6,9)

And,

N(2,6)\to N'(1.5(2),1.5(6))

N(2,6)\to N'(3,9)

The endpoints of M'N' are M'(-6, 9) and N'(3, 9).

Therefore, the correct option is B.
