ipn [44]2 years ago
5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

solution

let,

AB = 9

AC = 9 + 3a - 6

AD = 12

AE = 12 + 20

now

AB/AD = AC/AE

or, 9/12 = 3 + 3a / 22

by cross multiply

or, 9×22 = 12×(3 + 3a)

or, 198 = 36 + 36a

or, (198 - 36)/36 = a

or, 4.5 = a

Answer

y = 0.2x − 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope first by subtracting (10, -5) and (5, -6) in slope formula, this will equal 1/5 or 0.2

Then find the y-intercept which is the point that crosses the y-axis, in this case -7 is the y-intercept

Finally format in y=mx + b for slope-intercept form

y=0.2x-7

Line L is mapped onto the line t by a dilation centered at
STatiana [176]

The equation of line T is 2x - y = 7 ⇒ (6x - 3y = 21)

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size

  • If the equation of a  line is ax + by = k is dilated, with center origin and scale factor k, then the equation of the image of the line is kax + kby = kc
  • The line and its image are parallel
  • The coordinates of a general point on the image is (kx , ky)

Line L is mapped onto the line T by a dilation centered at the origin and  a scale factor of 3.

That means lint T is the image of line L after dilation

∵ The equation of line L is 2x - y = 7

∵ Line L is dilated by scale factor 3 and centered at origin

- That means multiply the equation of line L by 3 to find the

   equation of line t

∵ Line T is the image of line L after dilation

∴ The equation of line T is (3)(2x) - (3)(y) = (3)(7)

∴ The equation of line T is 6x - 3y = 21

<em>Very important note:</em>

The equation of line T is the same with equation of line L but multiplied by the scale factor 3 ⇒ L and T are coincide lines (same line)

That means the equation of lines T and L is 2x - y = 7

The equation of line T is 2x - y = 7 ⇒ (6x - 3y = 21)

nevsk [136]

Answer:

910 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This question sets up the equation tan20°=x/2,500. Solve for X by multiplying 2,500 on both sides giving you x = 2,500tan20°. Finally, plug that in a calculator and you get 909.92. Round it to the nearest foot and you get 910
