Answer: If the scale factor is greater than 1 then the image is an enlargement .

If the scale factor is smaller than 1 then the image is an reduction.

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation a transformation that changes the size of the figure in certain ways by using scale factor .

It stretches or shrinks the actual figure. It produces similar figures.

  • If the scale factor is greater than 1 then the image is an <em>enlargement</em> .
  • If the scale factor is smaller than 1 then the image is an<em> reduction</em>.
  • If the scale factor is equals to 1 then the image is <em>congruent</em>.

Jane plans to invest $500 at 8.25% interest, compounded continuously. After 14 years, how much money has she accumulated? Has he
kenny6666 [7]
Principal amount = P = $500
Time = t = 14 years
Interest rate = r = 8.25% = 0.0825
Amount accumulated = A

Using the formula of compound interest:

A=P e^{rt}

Substituting the values, we get:

A=500 e^{0.0825(14)}=1587.01&#10;

Thus the amount accumulated after 14 years will be $1587.01. Compared to the original amount of $500, this amount is tripled.
