Scale Factor (K) = (new length/measure)/ (original length/measure)
for x-coordinate = 8/2 = 4
for y-coordinate = 16/4 = 4
K=4, expansion
K is the representation of "scale factor". Scale factor is the ratio of the lengths involved of the similar figures. It can be used to identify the kind of dilation, whether it is contraction or expansion. If the Scale Factor is greater than 1, then that means expansion and if it is less than 1, then it signifies contraction.
Complete question :
A company has two manufacturing plants with daily production levels of 5x + 11 items and 2x - 3 items, respectively, where x represents a minimum quantity. The first plant produces how many more items daily than the second plant?
Answer:
3x + 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Production level of plant 1 = 5x + 11
Production level of plant 2 = 2x - 3
The first plant produces how many more items daily than the second plant :
Plant 1 production - plant 2 production
(5x + 11) - (2x - 3)
Open the bracket :
5x + 11 - 2x + 3
5x - 2x + 11 + 3
3x + 14
Daily production of plant 1 exceeds that of plant 2 by 3x + 14
The coefficient of x in this case is 1. (x*x = x^2)
Answer:
intersection point (-2,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
the line y = - 5 / 2 x you do the reciprocal which gets you x = -2 y = 5
