Answer:
prime factorization of 28
28 = 2 × 2 × 7
prime factorization of 50
50 = 2 × 5 × 5
Step-by-step explanation:
GCF, multiply all the prime factors common to both numbers:
Therefore, GCF = 2
Since center of dilation is the origin, this is easy. Just divide all of the x and y coordinate values by 3. Place the new point on the graph, and draw the triangle.
R' = R(3,6)/3 = (3/3,6/3)=(1,2). So R'(1,2)
S' = S(-3,6)/3 = (-3/3,6/3)=(-1,2). So S'(-1,2)
T' = T(-6,-6)/3 = (-6/3,-6/3)=(-2,-2). So T'(-2,-2)
So you now know the location of the 3 new points. R' at (1,2), S' at (-1,2) and T' at (-2,-2). Simply draw those 3 points on your graph and connect the lines to make a new triangle.
Answer: -8 and -4
This is something you do through trial and error. Making a list or a table like shown below might help.
It is 3 and 1/14ft or 3 and 4/16 ft taller
