We need to follow PEMDAS.
We need to do the division before we can do the subtract (which becomes into addition because of the signs).
12 - 16/-4
12 - (-4)
12 + 4
16
Your final answer is C. 16.
The scale factor of dilation from AB to EF is 0.25
<h3>How to determine the scale factor of dilation?</h3>
The given parameters are:
- EFJL is dilation of ABIK
- AB has a length of 12
- EF has a length of 3
From the above parameters, side lengths AB and EF are corresponding sides
This means that:
The scale factor of dilation (k) is
k = AB/EF
So, we have
k = 3/12
Evaluate
k = 0.25
Hence, the scale factor of dilation from AB to EF is 0.25

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
the height a creates with half of the baseline (5) and a leg (10) a right-angled triangle, and we can use Pythagoras to calculate a.
c² = a² + b²
c being the Hypotenuse (the side opposite of the 90° angle, so in our case the 10 side).
10² = a² + 5²
100 = a² + 25
75 = a²
a = sqrt(75) = sqrt(3×25) = 5×sqrt(3)
