Hello,

To find the scale factor, we have to look at what's going on in the problem. 

In point A, we are converting from (5, 3) to (7.5, 4.5).

We can write and solve equation to find the change (scale factor)

5x = 7.5  and 3x = 4.5

If you solve either equation, you will find the scale factor is 1.5.

Good luck,

Is it possible to find another line that’s parallel to 3x+9y=1 and passes through (0, 1/9)
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

no it is not

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+9y=1 simplified is

9y=-3x+1

y=-1/3x+1/9

this is the exact same equation as 3x+9y=1, so you cannot find another line thats parallel to it and passes through that same point (it'll always be that point)
