Answer:

7x+5=3x-15 x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract from both sides

7x+5-5=3x-15-5

{Simplify}

7x=3x-20

{Subtract}{3x from both sides}

7x-3x=3x-20-3x

{Simplify}

4x=-20

Divide both sides by 4

4x over 4= -20 over 4

{Simplify}

x=-5

Determine the scale factor for each dilation. Determine whether the dilation is an enlargement, reduction, or congruence transfo

scoray [572]

General Idea:

W hen we are given a point P(x, y) centered at origin with a scale factor of k, then the dilated point will be given by P' (kx, ky)

When $k>1$ , then P' is enlargement of P

When $0 < k < 1$ , then P' is reduction of P

Applying the concept:

In the diagram given A'B'C' is enlargement of ABC. So the correct option will be option A. $k = 2$ , enlargement
