The answer is the second option, option B, which is: B. <span>W'(2,8), X'(2,2), Y'(8,2)
</span> The explanation is shown below:
 You have the Triangle WXY has coordinates W(1,4), X(1,1), and Y(4,1) and the Triangle of the option B has coordinates W'(2,8), X'(2,2), Y'(8,2). As you can notice, the coordinates of the new triangle are the result of multiply the coordinates of the original triangle by a scale of factor of 2. Therefore, in other words, the Triangle WXY was dilated with a scale of factor of 2.

A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the are
Katarina [22]

Answer: Area = 6m²

              Smaller number = 16

              Hours = 9.6 h

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the area remains the same. Find the area of the rectangle.

1) w = x m                                2) w = x + 1 m

     l = x + 5  m                               l = x + 5 - 2 = x + 3 m

A₁ = A₂

A = w*l

A₁ = x(x+5) = x² + 5x

A₂ = (x+1)(x+2) = x² + x + 2x + 2 = x² + 3x + 2

A₁ = A₂

x² + 5x = x² + 3x + 2

5x - 3x = 2

2x = 2

x = 1

A₁ = x(x+5) = 1.6 = 6 m²

The ratio of two numbers is 2:5. If the larger number is 40, what is the smaller number.

<u> 2 </u> = <u> x </u>

5     40

5x = 80

x = 80/5 = 16

Sixteen construction workers can finish cementing a floor of a building in 3 hours. On a certain day, only 5 construction workers are available for the job. How long will it take the 5 construction workers to do the cementing job?

Use the least common denominator to write an equivalent fraction for each fraction. 5/6 and 2/9
olchik [2.2K]
5/6 and 2/9......least common denominator is 18
so 5/6 = 15/18 and 2/9 = 4/18

1/12 and 3/8...least common denominator is 24
so 1/12 = 2/24 and 3/8 = 9/24

5/9 and 2/15...least common denominator is 45
so 5/9 = 24/45 and 2/15 = 6/45

The base of a triangle is nine centimeters longer than the perpendicular height. If the area of the triangle is 180 square centi
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

<em>The base is 24 cm long.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

Let's call

b= base of the triangle

h=height of the triangle

The base is 9 cm longer than the height, thus:

b = h + 9

The area of the triangle is:

\displaystyle A=\frac{bh}{2}

\displaystyle A=\frac{(h+9)h}{2}

And its value is 180:

\displaystyle \frac{(h+9)h}{2}=180

Multiplying by 2:

(h+9)h=360

Operating:

h^2+9h-360=0

Factoring:

(h-15)(h+24)=0

The only valid positive solution is:

h = 15 cm

And b = h + 9 = 24

b = 24 cm

The base is 24 cm long.
