Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

An inverse variation is

xy = k where k is the constant of variation

8*9 = k

72 = k

xy = k

Let y = 12

x*12 = 72

Divide each side by 12

12x/12 =72/12

x = 6

Which is not a step in finding the scale factor of dilation
mariarad [96]

1)To find a Scale factor of Dilation, about the origin

We have

Pre-mage Image

(x, y) k(x,y)

For example

Pre-image Image

(2,4) 2(2,4) = (4,8)

2)When it's not about the origin then we have to count from the Projection Point

Having said this, ex

Which is not a step

a)

We can divide the x value of the image over the pre-image, not the way around.

In the example, I've given if we divide the pre-image over the image value we would have found a scale factor of 1/2. In the example, The scale factor was the inverse: 2

<span>A PRESENT FOR YOU </span>
<span>Ask someone to write a number, say a five-digit number. </span>
<span>(Can be a 2-digit.....3-digit.....4-digit....ect..... </span>
<span>Suppose the number written is </span>
<span>57836 </span>
<span>Now, without showing the asker, you write a number on </span>
<span>a sheet of paper and keep it folded. You have to write the </span>
<span>number by subtracting 2 from the above number and </span>
<span>adding 2 in front which will be.... </span>
<span>257834 </span>
<span>Next, ask the person to write another five-digit number </span>
<span>below his original number. Suppose he writes 37589. </span>
<span>So you now have... </span>
<span>57836 </span>
<span>37589 </span>
<span>Now you write a five-digit number below it in such a </span>
<span>way that each digit is 9 minus digit above. You now have... </span>
<span>57836 </span>
<span>37589 </span>
<span>62410 </span>
<span>Ask the person to add one more 5-digit number. If he </span>
<span>adds 54732, you add below it 45267. Note that you decided </span>
<span>the number by subtracting each of his digit from 9. </span>
<span>Thus, you now have..... </span>
<span>57836 </span>
<span>37589 </span>
<span>62410 </span>
<span>54732 </span>
<span>45267 </span>
<span>Next, ask him to add all the number and he gets 257834 </span>
<span>Show him the number which you had written as an answer </span>
<span>to this addition earlier in the folded paper and surprise him.</span>
