3(2x+1)=21 Solve this multi-step equation using the distributive property

1 answer:

7 0

3 (2x + 1) = 21
6x + 3= 21
-3 -3
6x = 18

Divide each side by 6, and x equals 3.

3 (2(3) + 1) = 21
3 (6 + 1) = 21
18 + 3 = 21

Hope this helps! Can I please have brainliest so I can level up? Thank you!

Given the preimage and image,find the dilation scale factor.

Oliga [24]

Answer:

The dilation scale factor is $\frac{1}{2}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The image is the dilated form of its preimage if and only if the following conditions are observed:

1) $K' = \alpha_{1} \cdot K$

2) $T' = \alpha_{2} \cdot T$

3) $P' = \alpha_{3} \cdot P$

4) $J' = \alpha_{4} \cdot J$

5) $\alpha_{1} = \alpha_{2} = \alpha_{3} = \alpha_{4}$

If we know that $K = (2, 0)$ , $K' = (1, 0)$ , $T = (3, 0)$ , $T' = (1.5,0)$ , $P = (1, 5)$ , $P' = (0.5, 2.5)$ , $J = (0, 3)$ and $J' = (0, 1.5)$ , then the coefficients are, respectively:

$\alpha_{1} = \frac{1}{2}$ , $\alpha_{2} = \frac{1}{2}$ , $\alpha_{3} = \frac{1}{2}$ , $\alpha_{4} = \frac{1}{2}$

As $\alpha_{1} = \alpha_{2} = \alpha_{3} = \alpha_{4}$ , we conclude that the dilation scale factor applied in the preimage is equal to $\frac{1}{2}$ .
