I think it would be 60% off.

No the answer is 40% Because you would subtract 20-12= 8 then 8/20 times 100 = 40%

The graph shows the dilation of ΔABC with the origin as its center. Which rule describes this transformation? A) (x, y) → (2x, 2
podryga [215]

<u><em>Note: Since, you have not added the graph. So, I will give you a general overview of the concept of dilation, the understanding of which will make you clear your concept.</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a dilation is the kind of transformation which produces an image which has the same shape as the original object, but having a different size.

Here are some key factors regarding dilation:

  • Enlargement occurs when a dilation does create a larger image.
  • Reduction occurs when a dilation does create a smaller image.
  • A dilation shrinks or stretches the original object.
  • If the scale factor > 1, the image will be a stretch (enlargement)
  • If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image will be shrunk (reduction)
  • If the scale factor = 1, the original object and the image will be congruent

Here is the impact of dilation when (x, y) → (2x, 2y):

  • Dilation with scale factor 2, will have the rule as (x, y) → (2x, 2y). The image will be a stretch (enlargement) as the scale factor > 1.
  • The location of the new coordinates of the image can be obtained by multiplying the coordinates of the original figure by 2.

For example, the coordinates of the image of a point A(4, 8) will be A'(2×4, 2×8) or A'(8, 16) after the dilation of scale 2 at the origin.

Here is the impact of dilation when (x, y) → (0.5x, 0.5y):

  • Dilation with scale factor 0.5, will have the rule as (x, y) → (0.5x, 0.5y). The image will be shrunk (reduction) as the scale factor < 1.
  • The location of the new coordinates of the image can be obtained by multiplying the coordinates of the original figure by 0.5.

For example, the coordinates of the image of a point A(4, 8) will be A'(0.5×4, 0.5×8) or A'(2, 4) after the dilation of scale 0.5 at the origin.

Round each mixed number to the nearest whole number and then estimate the difference. 18 9/11 - 8 3/8
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

18 9/11 rounded to the nearest whole number is 19 and 8 3/8 rounded to the nearest whole number is 8 so 19 - 8 = 11

Hope this helps :)

Train A and train B leave a central station at the same time. They travel the same speed, but in opposite directions, with train
ratelena [41]
Recall your d  = rt, distance = rate * time

so, keeping in mind that both trains are going at the same speed, say speed of "r" mph, after 212 hours A arrived at station A and after 4 hours, B arrived at station B.

now, the distance covered by train A is say "d", we know both stations are 585 miles apart, so, if train A covered "d" miles in those 212 hours, then train B covered the slack from 585 and d, that is "585 - d".

\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}&#10;&\stackrel{miles}{distance}&\stackrel{mph}{rate}&\stackrel{hours}{time}\\&#10;&------&------&------\\&#10;\textit{Train A}&d&r&212\\&#10;\textit{Train B}&585 - d&r&4&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;\boxed{d}=212r\\&#10;585-d=4r\\&#10;----------\\&#10;585-\boxed{212r}=4r&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;585=216r\implies \cfrac{585}{216}=r\implies \cfrac{65}{24}=r\implies \stackrel{mph}{2\frac{17}{24}}=r
