Answer: length = 24 ft

Width = 8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the barn.

Let W represent the width of the barn.

The area of a rectangular wall of a barn is 192 sq. Ft. This means that

LW = 192- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

It's length is 8 ft longer than twice it's width. This means that

L = 2W + 8

Substituting L = 2W + 8 into equation 1, it becomes

W(2W + 8) = 192

2W² + 8W = 192

2W² + 8W - 192 = 0

Dividing through by 2, it becomes

W² + 4W - 96 = 0

W² + 12W - 8W - 96 = 0

W(W + 12) - 8(W + 12) = 0

(W - 8)(W + 12) = 0

W = 8 or W = - 12

Since the width cannot be negative, then W = 8

L = 192/W = 192/8

L = 24

What is the scale factor in the dilation if the coordinates of A prime are (–7, 6) and the coordinates of C prime are (–4, 3)?
olchik [2.2K]

Option A: \frac{1}{3} is the dilation factor

Explanation:

The Coordinates of the square ABCD are A(-21,18), B(-12,18), C(-12,9), D(-21,9)

Also, the coordinates of the square A'B'C'D' are A'(–7, 6), B'(-4,6), C'(-4,3), D'(-8,3)

Now, we shall determine the scale factor in the dilation if the coordinates A' and C'.

Since, the dilation is the enlargement of the image in the same shape but different size.

To determine the scale factor, let us divide A'C' by AC

Thus, we have,

\begin{aligned}A^{\prime} C^{\prime} &=\sqrt{(-4+7)^{2}+(3-6)^{2}} \\&=\sqrt{3^{2}+(-3)^{2}} \\&=\sqrt{9+9} \\&=\sqrt{18}\\&=3\sqrt{2} \end{aligned}

Also,

\begin{aligned}A C &=\sqrt{(-12+21)^{2}+(9-18)^{2}} \\&=\sqrt{9^{2}+(-9)^{2}} \\&=\sqrt{81+81} \\&=\sqrt{162}\\&=9\sqrt{2} \end{aligned}

Dividing A'C' by AC, we have,

\frac{A'C'}{AC} =\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{9\sqrt{2}} =\frac{1}{3}

Thus, \frac{1}{3} is the dilation factor
