Hello there

1) asthenosphere lies below lithosphere and part of uppermantle.

it's highly viscous and behaves plastic.

it lies approximately 70-150 km below surface depending which . (50km below oceanic crust and 150km below continental crust)

2) 1/2 '4 =1/16 (4 is to the power of 1/2)

hope this helps

thank you

Graph and label the image of the figure below after a dilation by a factor of 1/2.

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

M' (1.5, -1), F' (2, -1), L' (0.5 -2.5), W' (2.5, -2.5)

see graph below

Explanation:

Given:

The image of a quadrilateral on a coordinate plane

To find:

The coordinates of the new image after dilation of 1/2 have been applied to the original image.

Then graph the coordinates

First, we need to state the coordinates of the original image:

M = (3, -2)

F = (4, -2)

L = (1, -5)

W = (5, -5)

Next, we will apply a scale factor of 1/2:

$\begin{gathered} Dilation\text{ rule:} \\ (x,\text{ y\rparen}\rightarrow(kx,\text{ ky\rparen} \\ where\text{ k = scale factor} \\ \\ scale\text{ factor = 1/2} \\ M^{\prime}\text{ = \lparen}\frac{1}{2}(3),\text{ }\frac{1}{2}(-2)) \\ M^{\prime}\text{ = \lparen}\frac{3}{2},\text{ -1\rparen} \\ \\ F\text{ = \lparen}\frac{1}{2}(4),\text{ }\frac{1}{2}(-2)) \\ F^{\prime}\text{ = \lparen2, -1\rparen} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} L\text{ = \lparen}\frac{1}{2}(1),\text{ }\frac{1}{2}(-5)) \\ L^{\prime}\text{ = \lparen}\frac{1}{2},\text{ }\frac{-5}{2}) \\ \\ W\text{ = \lparen}\frac{1}{2}(5),\text{ }\frac{1}{2}(-5)) \\ W^{\prime}\text{ = \lparen}\frac{5}{2},\text{ }\frac{-5}{2}) \end{gathered}$

The new coordinates:

M' (3/2, -1), F' (2, -1), L' (1/2, -5/2), W' (5/2, -5/2)

M' (1.5, -1), F' (2, -1), L' (0.5 -2.5), W' (2.5, -2.5)

-2+4(-x+4)=10 using distributive property and collecting like terms

stich3 [128]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$-2+4(-x+4)=10\qquad\text{use the distributive property:}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\-2+(4)(-x)+(4)(4)=10\\\\-2-4x+16=10\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\-4x+(-2+16)=10\\\\-4x+14=10\qquad\text{subtract 14 from both sides}\\\\-4x+14-14=10-14\\\\-4x=-4\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-4)}\\\\\dfrac{-4x}{-4}=\dfrac{-4}{-4}\\\\x=1$

What is the answer to <br> 8(x-3)+7=2x(4-17)

nadezda [96]

Answer:

x=1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First you distribute the 8 over the (x-3) giving you 8x-24. Do the same for 2x and (4-17). That should give you 8x-34x.

Your equation should look like : 8x-24+7=8x-34x

Next try to balance out your equation. You want your x's all by themselves in order to solve.

The 8x's cancel eachother out so you have -24+7= -34x.

Add the like terms of -24 and 7 to get -17.

Equation: -17= -34x

Divide both sides by -34 to get x by itself.

-17/-34 = x

Reduce by dividing the numerator and denominator by 17 to get -1/-2

Since they are both negative the fraction turns positive.

So the answer should be x=1/2
