Answer:

B) A dilation followed by a reflection

3 of our transformations are called isometries. These are transformations that preserve the size and shape of the original figure; they just change the position or orientation of it. Translations, reflections and rotations are all isometries. We know that isometries preserve congruence, since they maintain the size and shape of the original figure.

dilation changes the size of a figure. Since the new figure will not be the same size as the original, they will not be congruent.

Identify the factors of x2 − 4x − 21. (x − 7)(x 3) (x 7)(x − 3) (x 21)(x − 1) (x − 21)(x 1)

Tanzania [10]

The factors of the quadratic expression x² - 4x - 21 is (x - 7)(x + 3), making the first option the right choice.

A quadratic expression is of the form ax² + bx + c, which can be factorized using the mid-term factorization method, where b is shown as the sum or difference of two such numbers, whose product is equal to the product of a and c.

In the question, we are asked to factorize the quadratic expression, x² - 4x - 21.

In the given expression, a = 1, b = -4, and c = -21.

Thus, ac = -21.

The numbers having a product 21 are:

1*21 = 21,

3*7 = 21.

Since, 3 - 7 = -4 (That is b), we break b into 3 and -7.

Thus, the expression can now be shown as:

x² - 4x - 21

= x² + (3 - 7)x - 21

= x² + 3x - 7x - 21

= x(x + 3) - 7(x + 3) {By taking common}
