Mathematics

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

The correct answer<em> </em><em><u>is true</u></em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u>Dilation</u> is a type of transformation which stretches and reduces the size of the original figure.
  • A dilation has a center of dilation and a dilation scale factor. If the scale factor is less than one then the original size will shrink, and if the scale factor is greater than one then the figure will increase in size.
  • Dilation transformation does not alter the shape of a figure but  alters the size by making it bigger or smaller.

Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a statement. We are asked to determine whether our given statement is true or false.    

Statement:

Dilating a triangle changes the size of the triangle but does not change its shape.

We know that dilation changes the size of the image as dilation enlarges or shrinks a given image.

We also know that dilation does not change the shape of figure. Therefore, our given statement is true.

Which statement describes the lines whose equations are y=1/3x+12 and 6y=2x+6
ICE Princess25 [194]
First, you should solve both equations for the same variable. Since the first one is already solved for y, solve the second equation for y as well.

6y = 2x + 6   Divide both sides by 6
y = \frac{1}{3}x + 1

You can see that both lines have a slope of \frac{1}{3}.
Lines that have the same slope are parallel lines.

Initially, there were only 86 weeds in the garden. The weeds grew at a rate of 29% each week. The following function represents
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Option A. f(x)=86[1.04]^{x} ; grows approximately at a rate of 0.4% daily

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x)=86(1.29)^{x}

where

f(x) the number of weeds in the garden

x ----> the number of weeks

Calculate how quickly the weeds grow each day

Remember that a week is equal to seven days

so

f(x)=86(1.29)^{\frac{x}{7}}

Using the law of exponents

b^(x/a) = b^(x*(1/a)) = (b^(1/a))^x

so

f(x)=86[(1.29)^{\frac{1}{7}}]^{x}

f(x)=86[1.04]^{x}

therefore

The rate is approximately

1.04=1+r

r=1.04-1=0.04=4% daily

The sum of three numbers is 9.The sum of twice the first​ number, 4times the second​ number, and 5times the third number is 25.T
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

x = 6, y = 2, z = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a system of 3 equations with 3 unknowns.  We need to first write the equations given the information and then solve them.

The first equation is the sum of 3 numbers, all unknown, is 9:

x + y + z = 9

The second equation is again a sum:

2x + 4y + 5z = 25

The third equation is the difference of only the first 2 numbers:

6x - y = 34

We will start with that last equation and solve it for y:

-y = -6x + 34 so

y = 6x - 34

Now we will go back to the first 2 equations and sub that 6x-34 in for each y.  The first equation then becomes:

x + 6x - 34 + z = 9 and 7x + z = 43

The second equation then becomes:

2x + 4(6x - 34) + 5z = 25 and 26x + 5z = 161

We will solve those 2 bold equations by addition/elimination:

  7x  +  z  =  43

26x  + 5z = 161

Multiply the first equation through by -5 to get rid of the z's.  That equation then becomes:

 -35x  -  5z  =  -215

  26x  + 5z  =  161

Adding straight down the columns gives you

 -9x  =  -54 so

x = 6

Now we can plug that x value of 6 into any equation that has an x in it:

26(6) + 5z = 161 and

156 + 5z = 161 and

5z = 5 so

z = 1.

We can use the x value only again in the equation we solved for y in the beginning:

y = 6(6) - 34 so

y = 36 - 34 and

y = 2

The solution to this system in coordinate form is

(6, 2, 1)
