Answer:

So the answer is 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll assume the dilation was done at the origin point, so it was done evenly.

Since the k point went from (10,0) to (5,0), we know it was reduced... so the scale factor has to be below 1. A scale factor means the size wasn't changed and a dilation/scale factor larger than 1 means it was enlarged.

So, we take the new X-value (5) and divide it by the original X-value (10).

Scale factor = 5/10 = 1/2... so 0.5

Answer:

The scale factor of the following dilation is, 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of dilation with scale factor k is given by:

(x, y) \rightarrow (kx, ky)

As per the statement:

Given the following dilation:

(10, 0) → (5, 0)                 .....[1]

We have to find the scale factor.

Using the above rule we have;

(10, 0) \rightarrow (10k, 0k)

Now compare this with equation [1] we have;

(10k, 0) = (5, 0)

⇒10k = 5

After solving we get;

k = \frac{1}{2}=0.5

Therefore,  the scale factor of the following dilation is, 0.5

the probability of picking rotten apple in a box is 1/100 .if there are 6 boxes containing 1200 apples each how many rotten appl
bulgar [2K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

\huge{\boxed{72}}

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

First, find the total number of apples.  6*1200=7200

Now, multiply this by the probability of picking a rotten apple, which is \frac{1}{100}.  This is also the same as dividing by 100, or moving the decimal point two places to the left.  7200*\frac{1}{100}=72

This means that based on the probability given, 72 rotten apples will be picked.

What value of x is in the solution set of 2x – 3 &gt; 11 – 5x?
pochemuha

Given:

2x -3 > 11 -5x

Simplify both sides:

2x - 3 > -5x + 11

Add 5x to both sides:

2x - 3 +5x > -5x + 11 +5

7x - 3 > 11

Add 3 to both sides:

7x - 3 +3 > 11 + 3

7x > 14

Divided 7 to both sides:

\frac{7x}{7} > \frac{14}{7}

x > 2

What is the solution to the system of equations?
Over [174]

ANSWER

C) (6,-8)

EXPLANATION

The equations are:

y =  \frac{1}{3}x - 10

and

2x+y=4

We substitute the first equation into the second equation to get:

2x +  \frac{1}{3}x - 10 = 4

We multiply through by 3 to get:

6x + x  - 30= 12

Group similar terms,

6x + x = 30 + 12

7x = 42

Divide both sides by 7 to get,

x =  \frac{42}{7}  = 6

Put this value of x into the first equation to get;

y =  \frac{1}{3} (6) - 10

y = 2 - 10 =  - 8
