<h3>Answer: D. x = 4</h3>

===============================================

Explanation:

First compute f(2)

f(x) = 3x-1

f(2) = 3(2) - 1 ... replace every x with 2; use PEMDAS to simplify

f(2) = 6 - 1

f(2) = 5

When we say g(x) = f(2), we really mean g(x) = 5

g(x) = 2x-3

2x-3 = g(x)

2x-3 = 5 .... plug in g(x) = 5

2x-3+3 = 5+3 ... add 3 to both sides

2x = 8

2x/2 = 8/2 ... dividing both sides by 2

x = 4

Using triangle A B C as the pre-image and the origin as the center of dilation, which coordinate point is not a coordinate of a

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

The correct option is:

begin ordered pair 4 comma 12 end ordered pair i.e. (4,12).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the coordinates of the point A,B and C of the triangle ΔABC as:

A(-1,3) , B(2,1) and C(-2,-1).

Now it is given that there is dilation of this triangle about the origin with a scale factor of 4.

This means that the change in the coordinates after the transformation is given by the rule:

(x,y) → (4x,4y)

As A → A' , B → B' and C → C'

Hence the coordinates A',B' and C' are given by:

A' are (4×-1,4×3)=(-4,12)

B' are (4×2,4×1)=(8,4)

and C' are (4×-2,4×-1)=(-8,-4).

<em>Hence the coordinate point which is not a coordinate of dilation is:</em>

<em>begin ordered pair 4 comma 12 end ordered pair i.e. (4,12)</em>
