How are dilations and functions related?

If we dialate a function we are just changing what the graph looks like by a stretch or a compression, the function really doesn't change. If a function before the dilation, then it is a function after the dilation. The opposite is also true.

Answer:

A function is said to be dilated when it has been stretched away from an axis or compressed toward an axis. This dilation can be a vertical or a horizontal stretch.

When the given function is multiplied by any number, it will automatically dilate but at the same time, will also retain its basic shape.

How the heck do I do this? And what’s the answer?

stira [4]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find two expressions that, when simplified, give the same results.

1) First, simplify the expression stated in the question. Multiply each of the terms in the parentheses by the number that is next to them. This would mean you have to multiply both 9x and -6 by $\frac{2}{3}$ . You also have to multiply $\frac{1}{2}x$ and $-\frac{1}{2}$ by 4. Then, simplify.

$\frac{2}{3}(9x-6) + 4 (\frac{1}{2} x - \frac{1}{2})\\\frac{18}{3}x- \frac{12}{3} + \frac{4}{2}x -\frac{4}{2} \\6x - 4 + 2x - 2$

2) Now, combine the like terms.

$6x - 4 + 2x - 2$

$8x - 6$

So, we need to find which of the expressions listed equal 8x - 6.

3) Let's try option A. Do the same as before. Multiply each of the terms in the parentheses by the number that is next to them. So, multiply 4x and -12 by $\frac{3}{4}$ . Also, multiply 30x and 18 by $\frac{1}{6}$ . Then, combine like terms and simplify.
