Question

Please help fast! Line segment AB was dilated to create line segment A’B’ using the dilation rule DQ0.12•

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer option is C. 13.6 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line segment AB was dilated to create the line segment A'B' using the dilation rule $D_{Q, 0.15}$.

We are to find the value of $x$ which is the distance between the twp points A and A'.

For this, we will divide the distance of A'Q by the dilation factor and then subtract the given length.

$\frac{2.4}{0.15} = 16$

x = $16-2.4$ = 13.6 units
