<h3>
Answer: (2, 3)</h3>
=================================================
Explanation:
1/4 = 0.25 is the scale factor
Multiply this with each coordinate of the given point
0.25*8 = 2 is the new x coordinate
0.25*12 = 3 is the new y coordinate
So (8,12) moves to (2,3) after applying the dilation
The scale factor k makes 0 < k < 1 true, so the point is closer to the origin after applying the dilation.
--------
Side note: this trick of multiplying the scale factor by each coordinate only works if the dilation is centered at the origin. For any other center, you'll need to apply a translation first, dilate, then translate back again.
The coordinates of the fourth vertex are (0,0). I hope this helps!
Hello!
So let's first start out by solving the left side of the equation:
2 to the third power is 8
The right side now: -3 to the second power is -9
In total: 8- (-9)
So your answer is C) -1
I hope it helps!
This is ed right? If so the answer would be c
