Anything that is multiplied by a number over 1 will get bigger. any other number such as negatives or fractions/decimals will get smaller. 1.25 and 3 are expansions and -2,3/4, and 1/5 are contractions

Answer: Contraction = \dfrac{3}{4},\ \dfrac{1}{5}

Expansion = 1.25, -3, -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let k be the scale factor .

Expansion : |k|>1

Contraction : 0<|k|<1

Let's check the given scale factors :

1.25> 1, then this scale factor is an expansion.

3> 1, then this scale factor is an expansion.

|-2|=2>1, then this scale factor is an expansion.

\dfrac{3}{4}=0.75

& 0<0.75<1 , thus \dfrac{3}{4} is an contraction.

\dfrac{1}{5}=0.2

& 0<0.2<1 , thus \dfrac{1}{5} is an contraction.

George has a triangle-shaped garden in his backyard. He drew a model of this garden on a coordinate grid with vertices A(4, 2),
GarryVolchara [31]

The coordinates of triangle A′B′C′ is  A′(2, 1), B′(1, 2), C′(3, 2)

On plotting the coordinates on the graph, it is found :

Option A is the coordinates of a straight line.

Option C is the coordinates of a bigger triangle

Option D has a different shape.

Only option B fulfills the required condition of similar shape and scale factor of 0.5 .

Vertices of a triangular garden:

A(4,2)

B(2,4)

C(6,4)

Scale factor = 0.5

What are the coordinates?

  • A coordinate system in geometry is a system that uses one or more numbers, or coordinates, to determine the position of points or other geometric elements on a manifold such as Euclidean space.
  • Coordinates are numerical distances or angles that uniquely identify points on two-dimensional (2D) surfaces or in three-dimensional (3D) space ( 3D ). Mathematicians, scientists, and engineers use a variety of coordinate schemes.
