What scale factor was used in dilation

Mathematics
1 answer:
Mars2501 [29]2 years ago
3 0

Answer: (c) \bold{\dfrac{3}{4}}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Chooe any point <em>I am choosing point W.</em>

The W' is closer to C than W so the dilation is less than 1

The only answer choice that is less than 1 is option c.

Why is this the answer? <em>because the side lengths are proportional</em>

\dfrac{CW'}{CW} = \dfrac{WX'}{WX}= \dfrac{3}{4}

Consider the following problem: A farmer with 750 ft of fencing wants to enclose a rectangular area and then divide it into four
gregori [183]

Answer and step-by-step explanation:

For any rectangle, the one with the largest area will be the one whose dimensions are as close to a square as possible.

However, the dividers change the process to find this maximum somewhat.

Letting x represent two sides of the rectangle and the 3 parallel dividers, we have 2x+3x = 5x.

Letting y represent the other two sides of the rectangle, we have 2y.

We know that 2y + 5x = 750.

Solving for y, we first subtract 5x from each side:

2y + 5x - 5x = 750 - 5x

2y = -5x + 750

Next we divide both sides by 2:

2y/2 = -5x/2 + 750/2

y = -2.5x + 375

We know that the area of a rectangle is given by

A = lw, where l is the length and w is the width.  In this rectangle, one dimension is x and the other is y, making the area

A = xy

Substituting the expression for y we just found above, we have

A = x(-2.5x+375)

A = -2.5x² + 375x

This is a quadratic equation, with values a = -2.5, b = 375 and c = 0.

To find the maximum, we will find the vertex.  First we find the axis of symmetry, using the equation

x = -b/2a

x = -375/2(-2.5) = -375/-5 = 75

Substituting this back in place of every x in our area equation, we have

A = -2.5x² + 375x

A = -2.5(75)² + 375(75) = -2.5(5625) + 28125 = -14062.5 + 28125 = 14062.5
