Answer: FIrst option, Fourth option and Fifth option.
Step-by-step explanation:
First it is important to know the definition of "Dilation".
A Dilation is defined as a transformation in which the Image (which is the figure obtained after the transformation) and the Pre-Image (this is the original figure, before the transformations) have the same shape, but their sizes are different.
If the length of CD is dilated with a scale factor of "n" and it is centered at the origin, the length C'D' will be:
Therefore, knowing this, you can determine that:
1. If , you get:
2. If , then the length of C'D' is:
3. If , then:
4. If , then, you get that the lenght of C'D' is:
5. If , the length of C'D' is the following:
Answer:
12x +8y +1 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
You can write the equation by swapping the x- and y-coefficients and negating one of them. Then compute the constant that makes the line go through the given point. You can do that like this:
3(x-(-3/4)) +2(y -1) = 0
3x +9/4 +2y -2 = 0 . . . . eliminate parentheses
3x +2y +1/4 = 0 . . . . . . . simplify
To eliminate the fraction, multiply by 4:
12x +8y +1 = 0

<em>Comment on the equation</em>
The line ax+by=0 passes through the origin. Replacing x and y with x-h and y-k, respectively, makes the line pass through the point (h, k). That's what we did above to make the line pass through the given point.
The business of swapping coefficients and negating one causes the slope of the new line to be the negative reciprocal of the slope of the original line. That is what makes the new line perpendicular to the original.
