Rectangle ABCD has vertices at (-7,-2); (1, -2); (1, -8); and (-7, -8) respectively. If GHJK is a similar rectangle where G(2, 5

) and H(6, 5); where could points J and K be located? Group of answer choices

Answer:

Points J and K could be located at:

J(2,2)

K(6,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the vertices have a x and y coordinate:

A: x coordinate=-7  y coordinate=-2

B: x coordinate=1  y coordinate=-2

C: x coordinate=1  y coordinate=-8

D: x coordinate=-7  y coordinate=-8

G: x coordinate=2  y coordinate=5

H: x coordinate=6  y coordinate=5

Then it is possible to calculate the distance between the x and y coordinates:

x coordinate of Vertices AB:

x coordinate of B- x coordinate of A=1-(-7)=8

The distance between A and B is 8

y coordinate of Vertices AC:

y coordinate of A- y coordinate of C=-2-(-8)=6

The distance between A and C is 6

Then we know that the side AB of Rectangle ABCD measures 8 and the side AC, measures 6.

Repeat the analysis  with Rectangle GHJK. In this case, is only possible to calculate the distance with x coordinate.

x coordinate of Vertices GH:

x coordinate of H- x coordinate of G=6-(2)=4

The distance between G and H is 4

We can see that the distance in x of the Rectangle ABCD is 8, and the distance in x of the Rectangle GHJK is 4, it means that <em>the measure of ABCD is twice GHJK.</em>

Then, if the distance in y coordinate of Vertices AC is 6, we could say that the distance in<em> y coordinate of Vertices GJ is 3.</em>

<em />

Points J and K could be located at:

J(2,2)

K(6,2)

n a basketball tournament, team A scored 6 more points than 3 times as many points as team B scored. Team C scored 45 more point
Sergio039 [100]
To solve this problem we want to let X equal the amount of points that team A scored. Now we want to express the amount of points that team B scored in terms of X. If team A scored 7 more points than team B then team B scored X-7 points. We know that together they scored 163 points so we can set up this equation: x + x - 7 = 163 2x - 7 = 163 2x = 155 X = 78 Team A scored 78 points
