Answer:

The scale factor of a dilation from ABCD to RSTU is \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the rectangle ABCD is similar to rectangle RSTU.

Given that in rectangle ABCD the longest sides are DC and AB and in the rectangle RSTU the longest sides are UT and RS ⇒ The scale factor of a dilation will transform the sides DC and AB into UT and RS

Working with the lengths of the sides :

DC.(Scale factor) = UT

AB.(Scale factor) = RS

Replacing with the values of the lengths (Scale factor : SF) :

DC.SF=UT\\(90ft).(SF)=45ft\\SF=\frac{45ft}{90ft} \\SF=\frac{1}{2}

AB.SF=RS\\(90ft).(SF)=45ft\\SF=\frac{45ft}{90ft} \\SF=\frac{1}{2}

Notice that the scale factor is dimensionless.

We can verify this result with the sides AD and BC :

AD.SF=UR\\50ft.(\frac{1}{2})=25ft\\ 25ft=25ft

BC.SF=TS\\50ft.(\frac{1}{2})=25ft\\ 25ft=25ft

The scale factor (SF) is \frac{1}{2}

How do you find the percent of increase from 12 to 18?
olga nikolaevna [1]
Let's get the data out of the problem:

Nv = 18

Ov = 12

Now, we can apply in this equation that relates the new and the old values:

i = Nv / Ov

i = 18 / 12

i = 1.5

Now, we just consider what has passed from 1, and this is 0.5, converting to percentage it is:

p = 0.5 . 100

p = 50%

The increase was 50%.

Hope it helps.

Factor to find the zeros of the function defined by the quadratic expression. −7x2 − 91x − 280
Mariulka [41]
There are no zeroes for an expression, only for equations.
Assuming equation to be
<span>−7x^2 − 91x − 280=0
-7(x^2+13x+40)=0
-7(x+8)(x+5)=0
by the zero product properties, 
x+8=0 => x=-8
or 
x+5=0 => x=-5</span>
