If math students typically earn 24 points out of 35 possible on a test, how many points would be typical if there were 100 possi
1 answer:
Answer:
68.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the initial ratio of 24 points out of 35 possible points, you can set up a proportion (equivalent ratios) to find the expected number of points math students would ear on a test of 100 possible points:
Where 'x' is the number of points earned on the 100 point test.
Cross-multiply: 35x = 24(100) or 35x = 2400
Divide both sides by 35: 35x/35 = 2400/35
Solve for x: x = 68.6

By applying the equation of dilation, the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle ABC are A'(x, y) = (-12, 0), B'(x, y) = (0, -9) and C'(x, y) = (-12, -9).
<h3>How to find the image of a triangle</h3>
A dilation is a type of <em>rigid</em> transformation. <em>Rigid</em> transformations are transformations applied to <em>geometric</em> loci such that <em>Euclidean</em> distances are conserved.
There is a triangle and its image must be a triangle, the <em>new</em> triangle is found by transforming the three vertices of the prior one following this formula:
A'(x, y) = P(x, y) + k · [A(x, y) - P(x, y)] (1)
Where:
- P(x, y) - Center of reflection.
- A(x, y) - Original vertex
- A'(x, y) - New vertex
- k - Dilation factor
If we know that P(x, y) = (0, 0), A(x, y) = (-4, 0), B(x, y) = (0, -3) and C(x, y) = (-4, -3), then the new vertices of the triangle are, respectively:
Point A
A'(x, y) = (0, 0) + 3 · [(-4, 0) - (0, 0)]
A'(x, y) = (-12, 0)
Point B
B'(x, y) = (0, 0) + 3 · [(0, -3) - (0, 0)]
B'(x, y) = (0, -9)
Point C
C'(x, y) = (0, 0) + 3 · [(-4, -3) - (0, 0)]
C'(x, y) = (-12, -9)
Lastly, we draw the two triangles, which are presented in the image attached below.
