Answer: No, your friend is not correct. You cannot use a similarity transformation to turn a square into a rectangle. Here's why:
1) If you used a similarity transformation, the size and position of the shape would change, but the shape itself remains the same.
2) Squares and rectangles are NOT similar.* Referring to the first point I listed, if the shapes are not similar, then a similarity transformation cannot be used to turn one shape into another.
<em>*Similar means that the edges are proportional to one another, such as a square with sides of 4 meters vs a square with sides of 2 meters: the sides are different lengths, but the shape is the same.</em>
I hope this helps! Please feel free to comment below if you need any clarification. Have a good day, and good luck on your assignment. :)
Substitution for both equations is (-3,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 7/4 X
...... ... ... ...
$125 is a "must budget" so it will be the constant in the inequality
The fountain is $30 per hour. If they spend x hours, then their budget for fountain will be
fountain = 30x
The inequality
Their budget is maximum $250, that means they are able to spend less than or equal to $250
constant + fountain ≤ 250
125 + 30x ≤ 250
<em>This is the inequality expression</em>
Answer:
Rayshawn originally had $30.
Step-by-step explanation:
i) Rayshawn has a certain amount of money. Let us say this amount is $x.
ii) Rayshawn spends $20 which means that he is left with $(x - 20)
iii) it is also given that amount of money left after spending $20 is 
of the original amount, $x, the amount remaining is 
.
iv) from the information given in ii) and iii) we get
$(x - 20) = , Therefore we get 3x - 60 = x , therefore 2x = 60,
Therefore x = $30. Rayshawn originally had $30.
