Coordinates of the given triangle ΔPQR P(1,-1), Q(3,-2), R(3,-4).
a) Let us discuss the rule for rotation of 90° clockwise about the origin.
If given coordinate is (h,k) is rotated 90° clockwise about the origin the position of rotated coordinate will be (k, -h).
x and y coordinates would switch their values and after switching x any values, the y value of the coordinates would reverse in sign.
So, the coordinates of rotated ΔPQR P(1,-1), Q(3,-2), R(3,-4) would become
P(1,-1) --> P'(-1,-1)
Q(3,-2) --> Q'( -2,-3)
R(3,-4) --> R'(-4,-3)
b) If given coordinate is (h,k), the coordinates after reflection across the x-axis would besome (h,-k). (Just change in the sign of y-coordinate).
So, the coordinates of rotated ΔPQR P(1,-1), Q(3,-2), R(3,-4) would become
P(1,-1) --> P"(1,1)
Q(3,-2) --> Q"( 3,2)
R(3,-4) --> R"(3,4)
4, 7 and 9 are mutually coprime, so you can use the Chinese remainder theorem.
Start with
Taken mod 4, the last two terms vanish and we're left with
We have , so we can multiply the first term by 3 to guarantee that we end up with 1 mod 4.
Taken mod 7, the first and last terms vanish and we're left with
which is what we want, so no adjustments needed here.
Taken mod 9, the first two terms vanish and we're left with
so we don't need to make any adjustments here, and we end up with .
By the Chinese remainder theorem, we find that any such that
is a solution to this system, i.e. for any integer
, the smallest and positive of which is 149.
Answer:
u= 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Using BIDMAS
Step 1: Expand the bracket
9(u-2) + 1.5u=8.25
9u-18+1.5u=8.25
Step 2: collect like terms
9u+1.5u=8.25+18
10.5u=26.25
Step 3: Divide both sides by 10.5 to get u
u= = 2.5
