Answer:
somewhere between them i think
Step-by-step explanation:
Being that the triangle has a center of dilation at (0,0) you must contract the points towards (0,0). The scale factor is 1/3 so you must divide the difference in location of the points on the X and Y axis by a scale of 1/3.
1/3 of 9 = 3 , y = 3
1/3 of -6 = -2 , x = -2
by changing these points a new triangle will be formed
Answer:
x=-8
Step-by-step explanation:
I always change the decimals into whole numbers by multiplying them by 10. If you do this, it is much easier to solve. All you do is multiply every term by 10.
the equation changes to
-5(x+3)-2x=41
-5x-15-2x=41
combine like terms
-7x-15=41
bring the 15 over to the 41
-7x=56
divide everything by 7
-x=8
change x to a positive
x=-8
-1 and 1/3 because you convert to a regular fraction and get (32/9)/(-8/3), then you flip the fraction and multiply
