Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The midsegment VY is half the sum of the parallel bases , that is
VY =
, then
3x + 18 =
(x + 96) ← multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction
6x + 36 = x + 96 ( subtract x from both sides )
5x + 36 = 96 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
5x = 60 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 12
Exponential decay is the answer
The answer is A) Dilation, because a dilation makes an object bigger or smaller. hope this helped :D
You use point-slope form, which is y-y1=m(x-x1) , so it becomes
y-4=(-2/3)(x-3).
You can make it 3y-12=-2x+6.
Add 12 to both sides to make it 3y=-2x+18.
Lastly, divide everything by 3, so it becomes y=-2/3x+6.
