Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = - 5 is a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis.

A line perpendicular to it will be a vertical line parallel to the y- axis with equation

x = c

Where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (2, 7) with an x- coordinate of 2, thus

x = 2 ← is the equation of the perpendicular line

A dilation with a scale factor of 2 is applied to the three line segments shown. The resulting images are P′Q′¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, A′B′¯¯¯¯¯

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to determine the scale factor,

Scale factor = $\frac{\text{Dimension of the image}}{\text{Dimension of the original}}$

2 = $\frac{P'Q'}{PQ}$

2 = $\frac{P'Q'}{2}$

P'Q' = 4 cm

Similarly, for the length of A'B',

2 = $\frac{A'B'}{AB}$

2 = $\frac{A'B'}{1.5}$

A'B' = 3 cm

For the length of M'N',

2 = $\frac{M'N'}{MN}$

2 = $\frac{M'N'}{3}$

M'N' = 6 cm
