Steps to solve:

3x - 8 = -2; x - 6

~Substitute

3(x - 6) = -2

~Distribute left side

3x - 18 = -2

~Add 18 to both sides

3x = 16

~Divide 3 to both sides

x = 16/3

Quadrilateral HIJK has sides measuring 12 cm, 26 cm, 14 cm, and 30 cm. Which could be the side lengths of a dilation of HIJK wit

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadrilateral HIJK has sides measuring 12 cm, 26 cm, 14 cm, and 30 cm.

When HIJK is dilated with a scale factor of 1.5, the side lengths becomes:

12 X 1.5 =18 cm

26 X 1.5 =39 cm

14 X 1.5 =21 cm

30 X 1.5 =45 cm

A dilation of HIJK with a scale factor of 1.5 will give us the side lengths:

18cm, 39cm, 21cm and 45cm.

The correct option is C.

What is 1 2/3 multiple 2/3

Flauer [41]

Answer:

$1\frac{1}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

$1\frac{2}{3} \times\frac{2}{3}$

In order to multiply the two, we have to convert the mixed number into a improper fraction and then multiply the numerator by the numerator, the denominator by the denominator.

$1\frac{2}{3} =3\times1=3+2=\frac{5}{3}$
$\frac{5}{3} \times\frac{2}{3}$
$5\times2=10$
$3\times3=9$
$=\frac{10}{9}$

Convert the improper fraction into a mixed number:

$\frac{10}{9}$
$\frac{10}{9} =10\div9=1\frac{1}{9}$
$=1\frac{1}{9}$

Your answer is "1 1/9."

Hope this helps.
