Answer:

The scale factor of the dilation is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A dilation is a non rigid transformation that produce similar figures

so

Rectangle ABCD and rectangle A'B'C'D' are similar

Remember that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional

Let

z ----> the scale factor

z=\frac{D'C'}{DC}

we have

D'C'=12-3=9\ units ----> difference of x-coordinates

DC=4-1=3\ units  ---> difference of x-coordinates

substitute

z=\frac{9}{3}=3

The scale factor is greater than 1

so

The dilation is a enlargement

Write a recursive rule for the sequence.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

f(n)=f(n-1)+f(n-2)

f(1)=1x

f(2)=1x

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the fibonacci sequence with each term times x.

Notice, you are adding the previous two terms to get the third term per consecutive triples of the sequence.

That is:

1x+1x=2x

1x+2x=3x

2x+3x=5x

3x+5x=8x

So since we need the two terms before the third per each consecutive triple in the sequence, our recursive definition must include two terms of the sequence. People normally go with the first two.

f(1)=1x since first term of f is 1x

f(2)=1x since second term of f is 1x

Yes, I'm naming the sequence f.

So I said a third term in a consecutive triple of the sequence is equal to the sum of it's two prior terms. Example, f(3)=f(2)+f(1) and f(4)=f(3)+f(2) and so on...

Note, the term before the nth term is the (n-1)th term and the term before the (n-1)th term is the (n-2)th term. Just like before the 15th term you have the (15-1)th term and before that one you have the (15-2)th term. That example simplified means before the 15th term you have the 14th and then the 13th.

So in general f(n)=f(n-1)+f(n-2).

So the full recursive definition is:

f(n)=f(n-1)+f(n-2)

f(1)=1x

f(2)=1x

x represents the length, since the formula to find area of a rectangle is width times length.
