Where are the boxes we’re looking at??
Answer:
x = 2.
y = 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the triangle on the left.
Because there are 2 equal angles at the vertex on the bottom right:
3/9 = x/(8 - x)
1/3 = x / (8 - x)
3x = 8 - x
4x = 8
x = 2 (answer).
Similarly, for the second triangle:
3/y = 2/4
3/y = 1/2
y = 6
(answer).
Answer:
49 8/9 - 17 1/3 = -5/3 or -1 2/3
A dilation is when the figure is enlarged and a reduction is when the figure is reduced, smaller.
The scale factor for dilation is > 1 and reduction >0,<1
