Answer:
Looks like the scale factor is 1/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>(In this dilation, the green image is polygon ABCDE, and the red image is polygon A'B'C'D'E'. The red image is the resulting image after said dilation.)</em>
A scale factor greater than one enlarges an image, and a scale factor between zero and one shrinks an image, so that rules out options 2 (SF = -3) and 3 (SF = 3).
A negative scale factor would end up in an image opposite the center of enlargement, so that eliminates option 4 (SF = -1/3).
So that means that the scale factor is option 1 (SF = 1/3)!
Negative 1 because 3 x 3 is 9 and -2 x 5 is -10. Therefore 9-10= negative 1
Answer/step-by-step explanation
The soldier at point P lie on a parabola because he determined his position and distances from towns A and B through measurement of the difference in timing (phase) of radio signals received from the two towns.
This analysis of the signal time difference gives the difference in distance of the soldier at P, from the towns.
This process is known as hyperbolic navigation.
These distances of point P from towns A and B is estimated by the soldier at point P, by measuring the delay localizes the receiver to a hyperbolic line on a chart.
Two hyperbolic lines will be drawn by taking timing measurements from the
towns A and B .
Point P will be at the intersection of the lines.
These distances of point P(The soldier's positions) from town A and town B were determined using the timing of the signals received from the two towns, due to the fact that point P was on a certain hyperbola.
Consecutive integers are like 1, 2, and 3. They are in a row. Think about plugging numbers in for x. 1 and 1+2 are not consecutive, so A is not the answer. B and C don't start with x, so they aren't the answer. That leaves D, because it starts with x, then goes to x+1, and then to x+2. These are consecutive, because if x was 1, it would be 1, 2, 3.
The answer is D.
I hope this helps :)
Answer:
It would be 55.88 but if you round it it would be 55.9 then round it again it would be 56%.
