Answer:

Scale factor of the dilation is 3            

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a quadrilateral with vertices at A(4, -4), B(4, -16), C(12, -16), and D(12, -4) has been dilated with a center at the origin. The image of D i.e coordinates of D after dilation are (36,-12).

we have to find the scale factor of the dilation.

As we know if the scale factor for dilation is k the new coordinates after dilation can be calculated as

(x,y) → (kx,ky)

As image of D given i.e

D(12,-4) → D'(36,-12)

⇒ 12 → 12k i.e 12k=36 ⇒ k=3

and -4 → -4k i.e -4k=-12 ⇒ k=3

hence, scale factor of the dilation is 3

I think the answer is 3, because D(12;-4) and D' is (36;-12). Then 36/12=3, -12/-4=3
(I hope it's true)!!! :)

❗️❗️❗️Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with a rational denominator.❗️❗️❗️
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

In a 30-60-90 triangle, the ratio of the shorter side to the longer side length is 1:\sqrt{3}. Therefore:

x=\sqrt{3} \cdot \sqrt{3}= \\\\\sqrt{3}^2= \\\\3

Hope this helps!

The coordinates of the vertices of trapezoid JKLM are J(2, −3) , K(6, −3) , L(4, −5) , and M(1, −5) . The coordinates of the ver
olga2289 [7]
This is your answer:
<span>Trapezoid JKLM is congruent to trapezoid J′K′L′M′ because you can map trapezoid JKLM to trapezoid J′K′L′M′ by reflecting it across the line y = x and then translating it 1 unit up, which is a sequence of rigid motions.</span>

A certain kind of animal weighs about 75 pounds at birth and gains about 2 pounds per day for the first few weeks. Determine tho
Elodia [21]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

25

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Let w represent the weight of the animal in pounds, and d the age in days. The problem statement tells us ...

... w = 75 +2d

We want to find d when w > 125.

... 75 +2d > 125 . . . . . substitute the above expression for w

... 2d > 50 . . . . . . . . . subtract 75

... d > 25 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The animal will weigh more than 125 pounds when it is more than 25 days old.
