Answer:
I just took the quiz and got (0.15, 0.37)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given coordinates of the triangle:
(3,4)
(4,7)
(8,2).
We are given rule for transformation: (x,y) --> (-x,y).
According to given rule the y coordinates remain same but the coordinates of x's getting multiplied by a negative sign.
Let us write transformed coordinates of the given triangle according to given rule.
(3,4) --> (-3,4)
(4,7) --> (-4,7)
(8,2) --> (-8,2).
Now, we can plot those transformed coordinates on the graph and plot transformed triangle.
Answer:
3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
divide out the 4's and you are left with 3/8
I actually posted this a while ago and it got answerd by a smart person so here's what I understood
the error is that it assumes that √(x²)=x
because if x is negative, it becomes positive
that's how the 2nd line is wrong
the 2nd line is the first wrong step
it goes from 4-9/2+9/2
so it goes from 4-4.5+4.5
notice the part under the parenthsees
√((4-4.5)²)
if we evaluate 4-4.5, we get -0.5
but by squaring it we get 0.5
-0.5+4.5=4, yes
but when we square it we get
0.5+4.5=5, that is how it works
