Answer:

a = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

-5a-9+a=15

Combine like terms

-5a+a  -9 = 15

-4a  -9 = 15

Add 9 to each side

-4a -9+9 = 15+9

-4a = 24

Divide by -4

-4a/-4 = 24/-4

a = -6

Which of the following points is a vertex for the image produced by a dilation about the origin with a scale factor of 1/2?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

A (0,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given trapezoid has vertices:

(0,6), (7,12), (7,9) and (0,12).

We want to choose from the given options, a point that is a vertex for the image produced by a dilation about the origin with a scale factor of 1/2.

Note that the mapping for such a dilation is:

(x,y)\to( \frac{1}{2} x, \frac{1}{2} y)

This implies that:

(0,6)\to(0,3)

(7,12)\to(3.5,6)

(7,9)\to(3.5,4.5)

(0,12)\to(0,6)

Therefore correct choice is (0,3)

Patricia compró 10 estampillas de correos unas de $3.00 y otras de $1.00. Si pago con $18.00 en total. ¿Cuántas pago por cada un
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Entonces Patricia necesitara 4 estampas de $3 dolares y 6 estampas de $1 dolar

Step-by-step explanation:

Cuatro estampas de tres dolares cada una es:

3 × 4 = 12

Ahora necesitamos encontrar  cuantas estampas mas Patricia puede comprar. Podemos hacer esto restando 12 a 18, que es el costo total de las estampas menos del valor encontrado

18 - 12 = 6

Ahora sabemos que Patricia necesita 6 dolares de estampas ($1 estampas) para acompletar las 10 estampas  dando un total de $18 dolares.

6 × 1 = 6 < sumar 6 de 12

12 + 6 = 18

Entonces Patricia necesitara 4 estampas de $3 dolares y 6 estampas de $1 dolar
