1 answer:

3 0

<span>You need two number lines to compare two fractions when their denominators are different. The procedure is that you draw to segment lines of the same length but divede each line according to its denominator and then compare the place of the points that mark the fraction numbers, the line that content the marke further away from the start end will be indicate the greater fraction. For example, the fractions 3/4 and 7/10. One line will be divided inot 4 equidistant segments, and the other with 10 equidistant segments. The fraction 3/4 will be represented with 3 marks on the first line, and the fraction 7/10 will be represented with 7 marks on the second line. Now you can compare the size of the two segments marked adn decide which fraction is greater. </span>

What are the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle under the translation (x y) (x − 1 y − 3)

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

A: (-9,-3)(-2,-4)(-5,-8)

B: (-5,2)(-1,-3)(3,2)

C: (4,-7)(-1,-3)(4,1)

D: (-1,-11)(-2,-4)(-6,-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

So of the transformations, translations are pretty much the easiest. x-1 just means move all coordinates left 1 and y-3 means move all coordinates down 3. So for the first one the x coordinate gets 1 subtracted from it and the y value gets 3 subtracted from it.

(-8,0) => (-8-1, 0-3) = (-9,-3)

I do recommend double checking though, for practice and in case I flubbed a calculation.
