Polygon ABCD is dilated, rotated, and translated to form polygon A′B′C′D′. The endpoints of AB are at (0, -7) and (8, 8), and th

e endpoints of AB are at (6, -6) and (2, 1.5). What is the scale factor of the dilation?

Rotation and translation are rigid transformations, they don't change figure sizes. Dilation change figure sizes increasing or decreasing them by scale factor.

First, find AB and A'B' by the formula:

AB=\sqrt{(x_B-x_A)^2+(y_B-y_A)^2}= \sqrt{(8-0)^2+(8-(-7))^2}=\sqrt{8^2+15^2}=\sqrt{64+225}=\sqrt{289}=17,\\ \\A'B'=\sqrt{(x_{B'}-x_{A'})^2+(y_{B'}-y_{A'})^2}= \sqrt{(2-6)^2+(1.5-(-6))^2}=\sqrt{4^2+7.5^2}=\sqrt{16+56.25}=\sqrt{72.25}=8.5.

As you can see AB=2A'B'. This means that the segment AB was decreased twice to form segment A'B'. Then the scale factor is 1/2.

The local bike shop sells a bike and accessories package for $320 if the bike is worth 7 times more than the accessories,how muc
sdas [7]
So, bike=b and accessories=a.

b+a=320

Since the bike is worth 7 times more than the accessories, the b would turn into 7a (because 7 times the cost of accessories is the cost of the bike).

The equation would now turn into 7a+a=320.

Solve for a.

7a+a=320
8a=320
a=40

Now that you know the cost of the accessories, you multiply that 40
by 7 to get the cost of the bike.

40(7)
280

The cost of the bike is $280.
The cost of the accessories are/is $40.

Write the standard form of the equation of a circle with radius 3 and center (11, 3)
Talja [164]

Answer:

<u>x² - 22x + y² - 6y + 121 = 0</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>General Form of Equation</u>

  • (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

<u>Solving</u>

  • (x - 11)² + (y - 3)² = (3)²
  • x² - 22x + 121 + y² - 6y + 9 = 9
  • <u>x² - 22x + y² - 6y + 121 = 0</u>
