A. 3

You have to know figure out as many sides as possible before setting up the ratio.

On the short leg the entire leg is equal to 20, and some part of the line is labeled as 12. So you do do 20-12 which would equal to 8. So the shorter part of the short leg equals to 8.

Then you do the long leg. The entire leg equals to 35. Some part of the long leg is labeled as 7x. So you can label the other part of the long leg as 35-7x.

Since you have the numbers for the ratio now, you can do the next steps.

The first step is picking a location and then going any direction.

When I solved it, I started at the top and went down.

8/35-7x=12/7x

Then you cross multiply.

8*7x=56x. 12*35-7x=420-84x

56x=430-84x

Add 84x on both sides

140x=420

Divide 140 in both sides

X=3

What are the coordinates of the image of the point (1-, 2) under a dilation of 3 with the origin
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The image of the point (1, -2) under a dilation of 3 is (3, -6).

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct statement is:

<em>What are the coordinates of the image of the point (1, -2) under a dilation of 3 with the origin.</em>

From Linear Algebra we get that dilation of a point with respect to another point is represented by:

\vec P' = \vec R + r\cdot (\vec P-\vec R) (Eq. 1)

Where:

\vec R - Reference point with respect to origin, dimensionless.

\vec P - Original point with respect to origin, dimensionless.

r - Dilation factor, dimensionless.

If we know that \vec R = (0,0), \vec P = (1, -2) and r = 3, then the coordinates of the image of the original point is:

\vec P' = (0,0) +3\cdot [(1,-2)-(0,0)]

\vec P' = (0,0) + 3\cdot (1,-2)

\vec P' = (3,-6)

The image of the point (1, -2) under a dilation of 3 is (3, -6).

A music store marks up the instruments it sells by 40%. If the store bought a guitar for $35, what will be its store price? If t
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

a. $49

b. $74.28

c. No

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The store price is

= Purchase price + markup

= $35 + $35 × 40%

= $35 + $14

= $49

b. The price paid is

Since there is a markup of 40% and when it is added to 100% of cost so the selling price is 140% of the cost or 1.40 of the cost

Now the price paid is

$104 = 1.40 × cost

So, the cost is

= $104 ÷ 1.40

= $74.28

c. Now the markup is

= $100 - $75

= $25

The markup percentage is

= $25 ÷ $75

= 33.33%

No the store does not markup the price by 40%

If (inserted image), then f(2)=<br> A)1/3<br> B)1<br> C)7
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Given : f(x) = 3x + 1

We get f(2) by substituting x = 2 in the given Function

⇒ f(2) = 3(2) + 1

⇒ f(2) = 6 + 1 = 7

Option C is the Answer
