ilation (3, -2) to form Segment L′ M′ . Which statement is not true?
The length of Segment L′ M′ is one-half the length of Segment LM .

The length of Segment L′ M′ is twice the length of Segment LM .

The slope of Segment L′ M′ is the same as the slope of Segment LM .

Segment L′ M′ is parallel to Segment LM .

Answer: This is the choice that is not true: "The length of Segment L′ M′ is twice the length of Segment LM".


Justification:


Dilataions are transformations that preserve the directions of the segments. Hence, the image of a transformation has the same shape as the pre-image but different size.


When the scale factor is less than 1 (in this case is 1/2 = 0.5) the image is shrinked as per such factor.


To find the lenghts of the image of the dilation by a scale factor of 1/2 multiply the coordinates by 1/2: (x,y) → (x/2, y/2).


That means that the length of segment  L′ M′ is one-half the length of the segment LM; hence the first option is true and the second option is false.


The resulting segments are parallel which means that their slopes are the same, so the third and fourth statements ("The slope of Segment L′ M′ is the same as the slope of Segment LM" and "Segment L′ M′ is parallel to Segment LM") are true too.

Question about a rational expression
sesenic [268]
-9=6/v

You have to multiply v both sides because
6/v x v = 6 and helps you get rid of the v on the right side.
If you multiply by 6, 6/v x 6 = 36/v, that’s why it don’t work.

Answer:
-9=6/v
-9v=6
v=-6/9
v=-2/3

11. A city engineer determines that 5,500 cubic meters of
PolarNik [594]

The city do not have up to 5,500 cubic meters of sand that will be needed to combat erosion.

<h3>Volume</h3>

Volume is the amount of space occupied by a three dimensional object or figure. The volume (V) of a cone is given by:

V = (1/3)πr²h

Where h is the height, and r is the radius

Given that h = 35 m, the radius using Pythagoras theorem:

37² = r² + 35²

r = 12

V = (1/3)π(12)² * 35 = 5280 m³

The city do not have up to 5,500 cubic meters of sand that will be needed to combat erosion.

Pachacha [2.7K]
Dy/dx (2x⁵ y³ - 4y/x)

dy/dx (2y³ x⁵ - 4y/x)

dy/dx ( 2y³ x⁵ ) - dy/dx (4y/x)

= 2y³ 5x⁴ - (-4y × 1/x²)

=

Which equation applies the associative property of multiplication?
Radda [10]

-5/12 x (6/5 x 1/3) x 9/2 = (-5/12 x 6/5) x (1/3 x 9/2) as said equation correlates with the following formula: (a x b) x c = a x (b x c) where the way you group three or more numbers when adding or multiplying does not change their overall sum or product. Hope this helped! :)
