Answer:
x = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Dilation is a transformation in which the size of a given figure is either increased or decreased by a scale factor.
Given that the length of sides of the smaller triangle are; 5, 13, 12.
Given also that the length of the dilated triangle are; x, blank, 18.
Comparing the length of the last sides of the two triangles, we have;
(scale factor x 12) + 12
= ( x 12) + 12
= 6 + 12
= 18
Thus the scale factor for the dilation is . So that:
x = ( x 5) + 5
= 2.5 + 5
= 7.5
x = 7.5
And also,
blank = ( x 13) + 13
= 6.5 + 13
blank = 19.5
Therefore, the length of the sides of dilated triangle are: 7.5, 19.5, 18
Answer:
(-2,21)
Step-by-step explanation:
2 days ago, Paulo's commute time was halfway between his commute times 8 and 9 days ago.
8 days ago means that x-coordinate -8 represents this day. Count 8 units to the left and find that when x = -8, y = 24 minutes.
9 days ago means that x-coordinate -9 represents this day. Count 9 units to the left and find that when x = -9, y = 18 minutes.
Find halfway commute time between points (-8,24) and (-9,18):
then coordinates that Paulo should graph are
(-2, 21)
(-2 means 2 days ago, 21 is the halfway)
Y = 5
i think that what you meant
so the point will be (0,5) and will be a horizontal line at y=5
hope that helps
