The equation for working out the slope of a linear line is: $\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$ , where x and y are the coordinate pairs.

So just pick two of the purple dots on the graph and fill in the equation.

I'll pick the dot that's (-4, 1) and (4, -7).

Now I just do $\frac{7 - 1}{4 - -4}$ , which is just $\frac{3}{4}$ when simplified.

(05.08A)Triangle ABC is transformed to similar triangle A′B′C′ below:

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

1st option is correct i.e., 1 over 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Triangle ABC transformed to Triangle A'B'C'.

Coordinated of Triangle ABC are A(2,6) , B(2,4) and C(4,4)

Coordinated of Triangle A'B'C' are A'(1,3), B'(1,2) and C'(2,2)

Scale factor of Dilation is the no. of times coordinates of vertices of a figure increase or decrease.i.e.,

if A(a,b) ⇒ A'(c,d)

where, a.k=c & b.k=d then k is scale factor of dilation.

Value of k is same for all vertices.

For coordinates of A & A' ,we have $2.k=1\implies k=\frac{1}{2} \:\: and \:\: 6.k=3\implies k=\frac{1}{2}$

For coordinates of B & B' ,we have $2.k=1\implies k=\frac{1}{2} \:\: and \:\: 4.k=2\implies k=\frac{1}{2}$

For coordinates of C & C' ,we have $4.k=2\implies k=\frac{1}{2} \:\: and \:\: 4.k=2\implies k=\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, the scale factor of dilation is $\:\frac{1}{2}\:$ since in all cases $k=\frac{1}{2}$

1st option is correct i.e., 1 over 2

A person is 2 meters tall casts a shadow 6 meters long. At the same time, a flagpole casts a shadow 24 meters long. How tall is

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

8 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Height of person = 2metres

Length of person's shadow = 6 meters

Height of flagpole =?

Length of flagpole shadow = 24 meters

Height of person = length of person's shadow

Height of flagpole = length of person's shadow

2 = 6

x = 24

Cross multiply

6x = 48

x = 48 / 6

x = 8 meters

Dianna and Becky were playing on the same soccer team and took turns being goalie. They stoped 9 out of 10 shots made against th

vitfil [10]

Answer:

27 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

If Dianna and Becky stopped 9 out of 10 shots made against them.

It means they allowed in 1 out of 10 shots made against them.

This is best solved using ratios

Proportion of Shots Stopped : Proportion of Shots allowed=9:1

If the other team scores 3 points, it means the number of shots allowed =3

Let x be the number of shots stopped

Number of Shots Stopped : Number of Shots allowed=x:3

Therefore:

9:1=x:3

$\frac{9}{1}=\frac{x}{3}$

Cross multiplying

x=9 X 3 =27

Dianna and Becky stopped 27 balls from going into the net,
