A dilation of figure A by a factor of 1/2 is the last figure with sides 1in, 2 in, 0.5 in and 2.5 inch. Since dilation means becoming larger, smaller or wider from one figure, this is also same with similar figures where the ratios of corresponding sides should be the same. In this problem, the ratio is 0.5 or 1/2. Therefore figure A is similar to the last figure.

Answer: The answer is (D) the last figure.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given a figure A with sides of measurement a = 2 in, b = 5 in, c = 1 in and d = 4 in.. The figure A is dilated by a factor of \dfrac{1}{2}. We need to select the correct figure after dilation out of the given four options.

Since the figure A is dilated by a scale factor of \dfrac{1}{2}, so the new figure will have the following measurement of sides:

a'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2=1~\textup{in.},\\\\\\b'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 5=2.5~\textup{in.},\\\\\\c'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1=0.5,~\textup{in.}\\\\\\d'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4=2~\textup{in.}.

Therefore, the correct figure is the last one (D). The correct figure is attached herewith.

The area of a rectangle that has a length of 10 and a width of w.
alexdok [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area, multiply length by width (lw, or l×w). If the length is 10, that just leaves the width, which is unknown. We can substitute 10 for l, which leaves us with 10w.

Change y-7=m(x-4) to standard form
Ivan

Answer:

  mx -y = 4m -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form is ...

  ax +by = c

where a, b, c are mutually prime integers and a > 0.

If we assume m > 0, then we need to collect the variable terms on the right side of the equation, so the coefficient of x will be positive.

  y -7 = mx -4m . . . . eliminate parentheses

  -7 = mx -y -4m . . . . subtract y

  4m -7 = mx -y . . . . . add 4m

  mx -y = 4m -7 . . . . . . standard form
