ΔABC is dilated by a scale factor of 0.25 with the origin as the center of dilation, resulting in the image ΔA′B′C′. If A = (-1,

-5), B = (2, 1), and C = (14, 17 ), what is the length of B'C'? Select one: a. d = 15.25 b. d = 20 c. d = 5 d. d = 15

Answer:

  c.  d = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in coordinates B and C is (14, 17) -(2, 1) = (12, 16). When the figure is scaled by 0.25, that difference becomes ...

  0.25(12, 16) = (3, 4)

The length of a line segment with those coordinate differences is ...

  d = √(3² +4²) = √25 = 5 . . . . matches selection c.

Find the point, M, that divides segment AB into a ratio of 3.1 if A is at (-4,-2) and B is at (4. -10).
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

The coordinates of M are (2,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the point that divides the line segment joining

A(x_1,y_1) to B(x_2,y_2) in the ratio m:n is given by:

(\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n})

If A is at (-4,-2) and B is at (4. -10) and the ratio is 3:1.

Then

(\frac{3(4)+1(-4)}{3+1},\frac{3(-10)+1(-2)}{3+1})

(\frac{8}{4},\frac{-32}{4})

The coordinates of M are (2,-8)

Why can it help to line up the decimal points before comparing and ordering numbers with decimals?
Colt1911 [192]
Because it helps to see which one is greater, For example: if you line up 0.079 and 0.127 you can easily tell that 0.0127 is greater because it is closer to a hole number. Another example: 0.1 and 0.3, obviously 0.3 is greater. in conclusion, the reason you line up the decimal points is to make it easier to see which numbers are greater, which helps you compare and order easily!

REASONING An even integer can be represented by the expression $2n$ , where $n$ is any integer. Find three consecutive even inte
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

First Integer = 16

Second Integer = 18

Third integer = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

An even integer is represented by 2n

Where n is any integer

Let :

First Integer = 2n - 2

Second Integer = 2n

Third integer = 2n + 2

The sum of three even consecutive numbers = 2n - 2 + 2n + 2n + 2

= 2n + 2n + 2n - 2 + 2 = 54

= 6n = 54

n = 54/6

n = 9

First Integer = 2n - 2 = 2(9) - 2

= 16

Second Integer = 2n = 2(9)

= 18

Third integer = 2n + 2 = 2(9) + 2

= 20
