Answer:

The scale factor is 1.5, so 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know that the triangles are similar, so all we have to do is divide 12/8, 15/10, and/or 9/6. Then we get the answer 1.5. Although in a real world situation, this is fine. We need the fraction here, so look at the decimal. Notice it is .5 which is half. We also know that the number has a 1, which means one whole. Anyways, the .5 will make it easy to do a fraction with the denominator of 2 since you divide by two to get a half. Now we add our numerator which is 2 (from the 1) and + 1 (from the .5). Look we multiplied by two, two also happens to be our denominator, coincidence? I THINK NOT. Anyways, our final answer is 3/2 which is an enlargement.

Sedbober [7]

In order to answer the question, it's absolutely essential to have
enough of a description of the object to know which of its parts 
'X', 'Y', and 'Z' are, and what other parts it may have.

An ideal way to accomplish this would have been for you to include the
picture that accompanies the question, wherever you copied it from.

Answer:

y+3 = 2(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a slope and a point, we can use the point slope form for an equation of a line

y -y1= m(x-x1)

where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is the point

y--3 = 2(x-4)

y+3 = 2(x-4)
